How it works
Three steps, whichever app you start from
Each page names the brand as a plain word only. Borel isn't connected to any of them, and your app is your own.
- 1
Start from the prompt
Change anything in it first: names, rules, screens. Borel asks what it needs to know, then writes the app in Swift and SwiftUI.
- 2
Use it in your browser
It opens in a live iPhone simulator streamed from Borel's Mac, at no cost. Building starts free, with 5 free credits a day, up to 30 a month.
- 3
Keep it on your iPhone
With Pro, from $20 a month, Borel Companion installs it with a free Apple ID, up to 3 apps at a time, and renews each one every 7 days while it runs.
Frequently asked questions
Only where you ask it to. It's a different app that does what you describe, written in Swift for your iPhone. It won't have the other app's content, community or updates, and it doesn't need to.
Because it can fit you exactly: your categories, your rules, your screens. You change it by asking in plain words. Whether it costs less depends on what you pay today and how many apps you make.
Nowhere, by default: it's saved on your iPhone. If you ask for accounts, it's kept in your app's own database in Borel's cloud and follows you to another device.
No. With Pro, Borel Companion puts the app on your own iPhone with a free Apple ID. Publishing to the App Store is there for when you want others to download it.
Your app isn't on the list?
Describe the app you'd rather have in your own words. Borel plans the screens with you, then builds it while you watch.
