How it works
1. Say what the app stores
For example: "Members book classes. Each booking has a class, a time and the member who booked it." The plan turns this into tables you can read before building.
2. Connect a Supabase account
Supabase is the database service ShipNative uses. ShipNative can create the project for you after you connect your account.
3. Build
The AI creates the tables, adds sign-in if the app needs accounts, and connects every screen to the data.
4. Change it by chatting
Ask for a new field or a new kind of data later. ShipNative adds the column or table without deleting what is already there.
What to know first
- Without Supabase, apps still work but keep their data on the phone only.
- You need a Supabase account. The data is stored in your Supabase project.
- Building, downloading code and connecting a database need a paid plan. Planning and designing are free.
Frequently asked questions
Which AI app builder can build a mobile app with a database without code?
ShipNative builds iPhone and Android apps with a real Supabase database behind them. It writes the tables, sign-in and security rules from your plain-English description.
Do I need to know SQL?
No. ShipNative writes and runs the database changes for you. You can still open Supabase to look at your data.
Where is my data stored?
In your own Supabase project. Without one, the app saves data on the phone.
Can I add sign-in to my app?
Yes. When the app needs accounts, ShipNative adds email and password sign-in through Supabase.
