Awesome and feature-rich no-code app builder!
Basically, Appy Pie is an early-stage cloud platform that enabled a no-code development environment, We used it for a couple of mid-scale projects and still customizing it. If you want to leverage basic functionality according to some general business logic and performance, then it is a good fit. But if you require a full-fledged app development with extraordinary capabilities, then please note that this platform isn't made for that and it is not going to replace the native development.
PROSAppy Pie is so advanced and futuristic. The platform developers exactly know the requirements of the no-code requirement in the market. There are many instances where you are low on time and still need basic POC to pitch a capitalist, Appy Pie is going to be a savior there. You can leverage drag and drop facility to build your workflow according to the rough design that you have in your mind. I would suggest, using an AI-based drawing-to-UI maker online platform to generate a design and build on top of Appy Pie.
CONSThere are no such cons at this price range (which also offers a free tier with limited capabilities). But if we compare to some backend low code generator platforms like Back4App, there should be some practical capabilities in the free tier too, except that everything is at par with the expectations. It is good for a small business that does not thrive on IT capacity. Also, backend integrations with on-prem resources could be involved on a trial basis so that a POC can be designed.
Reason for choosing Appy Pie
Just use Appy Pie, it is one of the first of its kind. Also, it is very much easy to export the format you desire.

My Few Month of Commendable Review for Appy Pie
It Was a Good Experience all through. but it was one that requires you to be on your toes, and be ready to get either disappointed or Happy with your Work(Builded App)
PROSMy first Love for the Appy Pie Platform, is been able to design Apps without you even signing in. Secondly you given a Basic Plan where you can build your App. Thirdly you have the opportunity to include features you see from already establish app or site. and Lastly but not the Least, you can also be able to monetize your App after productions through either Google Admob Amazon And more.
CONSUnfortunately, Their are some more factors which make the platform stressful and tough for developers or Non-coders, First their is no much difference in App created on the Appy Pie Platform, they all tend to look similar, Secondly building a Clone App seems to be easy from start but definately going to be complicated. Thirdly you have to be ready to spend, if not you would have to stop your Project Half Way, which seems the Appy Pie Platform is a little bit contradicting it own usability by anyone(Poor).
Reasons for switching to Appy Pie
Wanted to checkout other building Apps. for Ease of use

A complete failure using appy pie
After using the Appy pie system for more than 10 months now, I would have to write this review to tell other users about what are you going to expect. It is going to be fair review because i have also used it for atleast 10 months now. Well for beginners who would like to create an app with features provided by appy pie, this is very good start. Setting up the system is easy, with having some technical background. The system provides lot of functionalities, lot of integration options, but as soon as you start using the system, you will realize that there are basic functions which does not work. It is a major headache/frustration to explain the issues to support people. They are quick to provide reply to your queries but be prepared to explain the whole error situation again and again. If the system is hanging, they will try to solve it, but be prepared to get new bugs into the system. You yourself have to test every possible scenario on your own. As soon as a requirement or basic functionality cannot be provided by them, they will just reply that other customers might be affected so we cannot do that. But the truth is, no real customer could work with the system without a fix, so that means there are actually no other customers using the feature. And if you have no way. You try the system, work with the system, get clients by spending lot of effort and then after 10 months you realize that system is not going to support. But you are stuck, no other choice.
PROSEasy to setup and use. Integration with few third parties.
CONS1. In India, it might work to just display the name of the product on the product listing page like Butter Panner or Dal makhani but in Germany where the food is so diverse, coming from so many regions, people have no idea what the product contains just by looking at the name. It also needs to display the description on the same page. Otherwise it's too much clicking/navigation, cannot work. The system should have the possibility to allow this as it's already like this on appy pie own website (which is generated from the same app). 2. Showing pictures/images on the product listing page is a major setback for categories with big product listing: How does the end user need to find the correct product if there are more than 50 items in the list, scrolling and scrolling and scrolling. 3. Payment system (e.g. Paypal amount could not be handled individually for the restaurants). I see that technically it might be possible but the product management team does not want that. 4. The current review system inside the app is a major joke. None of the customers who order food are able to provide a review and none of the customers who need to check/read the reviews are able to do so. 5. User management is of no use. 6. Translation of the app is possible but the backend system cannot be translated and the restaurant owners see all in english. 7. No reward or loyalty management system. 8. App size of 200 MB on iPhone. 9. 1000s of bugs in the system.

Appy Pie Review
I love that I can create a great app from this platform. I think it is easy to use and they even help you publish it.
CONSEven though it is easy to use, there are parts about it that are still foreign to me. I just have to trial and error it to see what I can and cannot do.
