FAQs

Flutter vs React Native in 2026? Flutter leads for new projects; React Native remains strong where JS teams exist.

Can I ship a real app with FlutterFlow alone? Yes — many indie apps on the App Store are FlutterFlow-built.

Does Apple approve AI-generated apps? Yes, if they follow App Store Review Guidelines. AI-assisted is the norm.

Best AI for Swift? Xcode 16+ native assistant plus GitHub Copilot for broader support.

Is ASO still important? Critical — 65% of installs come from App Store search.

How long to launch an MVP? With AI: 2–6 weeks solo. Traditional: 3–6 months.
