Framer to app — branded mobile client
In one sentence
BuildMyAPK turns a Framer site into a mobile app by reading the live URL (brand, structure, optional API) and generating a native Expo client — not a WebView wrapper. Attach OpenAPI or GitHub for real backend wiring.

How Framer to app works
Switch to Existing backend in the dashboard. Attach your Framer site URL — and optionally OpenAPI or a GitHub repository. BuildMyAPK extracts brand tokens, plans mobile screens, and writes an Expo / React Native client that can call your existing API.
What you need to provide
Minimum: your live site URL and a prompt describing the mobile flows you want.
- Published Framer site URL (for brand extraction)
- OpenAPI or GitHub for any external API your site uses
- Prompt describing the mobile product flows
Framer backend reality
Framer is primarily a frontend and marketing site builder. It rarely hosts a full custom API. If your Framer site connects to Supabase, Firebase, or a custom backend, attach OpenAPI or the GitHub repo for that service — that is the real backend the mobile app should call.
Not a WebView wrapper
A wrapper APK loads your site in embedded browser chrome. BuildMyAPK generates native-style React Native screens that match your brand — which you can iterate in chat and export as real source code.
How to start
Create an account, open the dashboard, and describe the product in one sentence — or paste a website URL. Preview the live app in a phone frame, iterate in chat, then export source or run a cloud build for APK or IPA.
FAQ
Can Framer alone be my app backend?
Usually no. Framer URL gives brand and layout hints. Live data requires the external API your site already uses.
Will the app look like my Framer site?
BuildMyAPK matches colors, tone, and component feel — adapted to mobile patterns like bottom tabs, not a pixel clone of desktop layouts.
