We have updated our platform to adhere to Apple's best practices of having developers test apps with their individual accounts. As a result, downloading iOS apps is no longer available. You can learn more here: Update on iOS downloading with Thunkable. Soon we will release the ability to download iOS apps with your own Apple Developer Certificate.
In order to facilitate iOS testing, you will need to follow the instructions on the Publish page to use TestFlight.
Users should be aware of the total number of downloads they are allowed per month. If you reach your total allowed downloads, you will not be allowed to download again until your next billing cycle begins.
All Android apps built with Thunkable are built with Android API 31 and target Android 12
To download your Android app, click the Download icon and select Download Android
- Enter your email address in the pop-up window
You will be sent an email with a link to download your app.
To install your Android app, you will need to go to Settings > Security and allow apps to be installed from Unknown Sources. This will allow you to install apps from sources other than the Play Store.
Anyone installing your app directly, instead of from the Play Store, will need to change the setting on their phone to allow installation of apps from Unknown Sources
Common issues
You receive an email from the hard-working beaver saying that this app will not build
- You uploaded an icon that has the same name as an existing asset that you have uploaded
- Your app icon is not an image file
- Your app icon contains transparent pixels. Apple does not allow you to have any icons with any transparent colors
- We are having trouble with our build servers. Please try again in 30 minutes or chat with us if you are still having problems
- App (Bundle) ID. Your App (Bundle) ID is a series of short strings of text that are separated by periods, such as com.thunkable.creator.app. These string of text must i) be lowercase, ii) begin with a letter.
- Examples of App (Bundle) IDs that can cause errors: com.thunkable.creator.1app, Com.Thunkable.Creator.APP
- Asset names. We recommend that asset names only contain Roman alphabet characters with no accents, and numbers.
