==History==
[[File:Thunkable.png|left|thumb|120x120px|Old icon used]]
Thunkable is based on the App Inventor project<ref name="first-citation" />, which began at Google Research and MIT (as of 2010). It was founded in 2015 by Arun Saigal and WeiHua Li. Before, there was only one version, the "classic" version.
Later, Thunkable X was made, a successor to Thunkable Classic.
In 2018, it was said that people can use a custom [[trademark|branding]] on how their [[logo]] looks like in a phone's home screen and when the app is loading, with PRO, a [[subscription|paid plan]].<ref>{{Cite web |first=Albert |last=Unknown Surname |date=October 2018 |title=Latest Thunkable PRO Release - Remove Thunkable Branding from Initial Screen - Announcements - Community |url=https://community.thunkable.com/t/latest-thunkable-pro-release-remove-thunkable-branding-from-initial-screen/53226 |url-status=live |access-date=27 February 2023| website=Thunkable Community |language=en}}</ref>
In 2019, Thunkable Classic was said that it is [[Retirement|retiring]] and people cannot sign up to Thunkable Classic. But people who signed up before still can use Thunkable Classic. <ref name="newpro">{{Cite web |date=2020-03-05 |title=🎉 New Thunkable ✕ PRO Feature: Publish your Project as a Web App 2020-03-11 |url=https://community.thunkable.com/t/new-thunkable-pro-feature-publish-your-project-as-a-web-app-2020-03-11/500455 |url-status=live |access-date=2023-02-12 |website=Thunkable Community |language=en}}</ref>
In 2020 to now, Thunkable Classic was no longer able to use, completely retiring Classic. Earlier in 2020, Thunkable said there was a new web app publication feature, for users with the paid plan PRO. It shows how a phone running the application in a [[webpage]] looks like.<ref name="newpro" /> Later in 2020, [[wikt:specific|specifically]] December, DnD replaced StP. It has a new user interface.<ref>{{Cite web|last=O' Hanlon|first=Domhnall|date=14 December 2020|title=👩‍🎨 The future of UI design in Thunkable - Announcements - Community|url=https://community.thunkable.com/t/the-future-of-ui-design-in-thunkable/1035738|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230315174712/https://community.thunkable.com/t/the-future-of-ui-design-in-thunkable/1035738|archive-date=15 March 2023|access-date=15 March 2023|website=Community|language=en}}</ref> But the documents for the new UI released later, in 2021.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Unknown surname|first=Jane|date=12 April 2021|title=Thunkable Drag and Drop Docs are Here! - Announcements - Community|url=https://community.thunkable.com/t/thunkable-drag-and-drop-docs-are-here/1219395/1|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230315175338/https://community.thunkable.com/t/thunkable-drag-and-drop-docs-are-here/1219395|archive-date=15 March 2023|access-date=15 March 2023|website=Thunkable Drag and Drop Docs are Here! - Announcements - Community|language=en}}</ref>
