Apps have always been built by strangers. Until now.

For your family's trip. Your friend's birthday. Your own creative obsession. Personal, shareable mini-apps — built in minutes, made for the people who actually matter.

Describe it. It’s yours in minutes.

Things people
want to know

When will it be available?

We’ll be launching soon. Right now, we’re in our early beta phase, refining the product and making improvements with each round of feedback. We’re getting closer every day.

If you’d like to become an Early Beta Tester, email us at team@playful.software.

Do the people I share with need an account?

No login required for people using your app. Anyone can open and use your creations without signing in. They only need to log in if they want to make changes, contribute, or add something themselves.

What kind of apps can I build?

Pretty much anything personal and useful to you, a trip planning app, an app to help you pick a wine, or even a small virtual world, those are just a few examples of what people are creating in Playful.

Who owns the apps I make?

The idea is that your creations feel like they’re truly yours, even if they live on our server.
