Link: Wix's new tool taps AI to generate smartphone apps | TechCrunch

Wix says that its new AI-powered app builder, which requires a $99-per-month subscription to Wix’s premium Branded App plan, generates app code that’s “fully native” to iOS and Android. Users have control over their app’s branding, layout and features, including icons and themes, and can preview the app before submitting it to the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. “The goal of our AI is to offload most, if not all, of the hard work from the user,” Abrahami said. “The more detailed the answers to the prompts during setup, the more personalized and complete the AI-generated app will be.” #
