Rork

Build native iPhone, Android and web apps by chatting with an AI agent

Freemiumrork.comUpdated 19 Oct 2026

About Rork

Rork is a browser-based AI app builder that turns plain-language descriptions into mobile and web apps. Users chat with an agent that designs the screens, writes the code, runs the app in a cloud simulator next to the chat, and submits builds to the App Store, Google Play or a web address. According to its documentation, Rork writes native Swift (SwiftUI) for iPhone, Kotlin (Jetpack Compose) for Android, and Vite and React for the web.

Best for

Turning an app idea into a working native iPhone
Android or web app and publishing it to the stores
Idea-to-App-Store Prototype: A founder describes an app, previews it in the cloud simulator and submits it to TestFlight.
Android and Web Versions: Building a Kotlin Android app or a React web app from the same project idea.
Migrating From Another Builder: Exporting a Lovable or Bolt project to GitHub and importing it to get a native mobile app.
Native Games: Building 2D and 3D games with SpriteKit, RealityKit or three.js.

Not ideal for

Teams needing a public API or on-premise deployment, or Android and web publishing from Rork Max apps (Max apps are iOS-only)

Frequently asked questions

Is Rork free?

Rork has a Free plan limited to Design mode with 35 credits a month in major markets (5 per day cap). Building and publishing apps needs Rork Pro ($20/month) or Rork Max (from $200/month).

What is the difference between Rork Pro and Rork Max?

Pro builds iPhone, Android and web apps. Max, from $200/month, includes more credits and adds iPad, Apple Watch, Vision Pro, native games, iOS widgets and priority chat support. Max apps are iOS-only.

Can I buy more credits if I run out?

Not separately. You can upgrade to a higher plan or wait for the monthly reset. Rork says it does not charge credits for AI errors.

Can I build a web app with Rork?

Yes. Web apps are built with Vite and React and can be published to an address on rork.app, according to the docs.

Is the Rork Max iPhone app on the App Store?

No. The docs say it is installed over USB from a Mac or Windows PC, needs iOS 18 or later, and is rolling out to selected accounts.

Does Rork still build Expo apps?

Rork's docs say it switched from Expo (React Native) to Swift after internal benchmarks; existing Expo projects keep working.
