Fastshot is an AI-powered mobile app builder that generates production-ready native iOS and Android apps from text descriptions. Built on Expo and React Native, it handles design, code generation, backend setup, and App Store deployment — no coding required.

Do I need coding experience to use Fastshot?

No. Fastshot generates complete mobile apps from plain English descriptions. No coding, design, or technical skills are required. Simply describe your app idea and Fastshot builds it.

What kind of apps can Fastshot build?

Fastshot builds native iOS and Android mobile apps across all categories including fitness, social, productivity, business, education, e-commerce, and lifestyle apps. Apps include UI, navigation, backend (Supabase with PostgreSQL), authentication, push notifications, and monetization.

Can I deploy my app to the App Store and Google Play?

Yes. Fastshot compiles APK and AAB files for Google Play and IPA files for the App Store in the cloud. It also generates store metadata, screenshots, and submission documentation for both platforms.

Do I own the source code?

Yes. You get full ownership of the generated React Native and Expo source code. You can export it, modify it in VS Code or any IDE, or hand it to a developer. Zero vendor lock-in.

How is Fastshot different from web app builders like Bolt.new or Lovable?

Bolt.new and Lovable generate web applications that run in a browser. Fastshot generates true native mobile apps using React Native and Expo that compile to iOS and Android binaries with full device API access including camera, GPS, push notifications, and biometrics.

Where does the flight data come from?

Fastshot generates the app with API integration points. Post-export, connect to FlightAware, AviationStack, or any flight data API for real-time status information.

Can users receive push alerts for delays and gate changes?

Yes. Describe alert preferences and Fastshot generates push notification triggers for delays, cancellations, gate changes, and boarding times.

Is there an airport terminal map feature?

Include airport maps in your description. Fastshot generates terminal information screens with gate locations, lounges, and amenities for major airports.

Can users track multiple flights at once?

Absolutely. The generated app supports tracking multiple active flights simultaneously with a dashboard view showing all monitored flight statuses.

Can I share flight status with family?

Describe sharing features and Fastshot generates shareable flight status cards so travelers can keep family or colleagues updated on their arrival time.
