What Is Thunkable? Features, Pricing & Alternatives

Overview

Thunkable lets users build native iOS and Android apps with drag-and-drop components and block-based logic, and test them live on a phone before publishing to the app stores^[4]. It also sells Education plans for students, teachers and districts^[4].

The Free plan includes 2,000 AI tokens, three public projects and five screens per project, with no private projects^[4]. Builder costs US$59 per month or US$37 per month on annual billing and includes unlimited public projects, ten private projects, unlimited screens, custom branding and one live published app; Advanced costs US$189 per month or US$99 annually with unlimited published apps and priority support^[4]. An Accelerator tier is listed at US$18–19 per month for small projects^[4].

Thunkable’s FAQ notes that published apps become unavailable to end users if the subscription expires, and testing downloads expire after 72 hours^[4]. The one-published-app limit on Builder means businesses with several apps need Advanced. At the time of review the page also advertised a 50% Black Friday discount for new plans^[4].
