Hello people

I have the following questions:

can i publish a native app in the app store with own logo and name?

If the pro-membership is not paid or I terminate it what happens with the apps on the app and play store? (not the webapp)(native apps)

can i publish the apps as native?

can i download the app as .ipa?

do the apps need internet connection to work?

are there extra costs for publishing?

do i need an apple and android developer account?

yes!

> If the pro-membership is not paid or I terminate it what happens with the apps on the app and play store? (not the webapp)(native apps)

nothing

> can i publish the apps as native?

Apps are published as AAB or IPA files

> can i download the app as .ipa?

Unfortunately Apple do not currently permit this - we recommend using TestFlight though for the best testing experience on iOS

* * *

> do the apps need internet connection to work?

If you use internet connected components they do; if you use offline components, they don’t

* * *

> are there extra costs for publishing?

Different pricing tiers have publishing thresholds, PRO is designed specifically for individuals who have a project and want to publish it.

> do i need an apple and android developer account?

This isn’t Thunkable-specific, but yes. Anyone who wants to publish their apps to either of the stores should maintain an account there. It’s just like running any other business, only it’s entirely digital!

Yes. Google requires a one-time fee to establish the developer account. Apple charges an annual fee, so you have to pay it every year.
