No-code tool for native ios podcast app?

hi all,

i am looking to re-build an app, but with a no-/low-code environment.

most tools i've checked out seem incapable (b/c i need to create what is effectively a podcast player), or out of my price range ($1,500/mo min).

am i missing any other options?

thanks!

    Adding, the closest thing I’ve found to what I want/need thus far is Appery.io

    The history/stability of the company gives me great pause, but in general it looks like a legit tool.

      Man I give up

      The site says they do not do native apps

      Even tho there is still functionality inside the site that talks about how to generate your binary ios app and presumably get it into the store

      Got me

      Appery.io is a low-code app development platform that makes it easy to create hybrid mobile apps, web apps and PWAs.

    I am pretty sure Glide is capable of doing a podcast player. They even have a template for it!

      oh man, hide this from google! :-D

      i don't know if i actually stumbled upon glide already -- maybe a bit yesterday -- but maybe mixed it up in my head with Smartsheet, which is hear is fine-ish/great-ish, but i generally have no interest in spreadsheets.

      that said, looking at it again now and trying it out, i'm def impressed. it helps that they had almost my exact use case as a demo.

      it looks like PWAs progressive web apps only at this point. that could potentially work for me. i'll def put in more time to build out a demo and see if it can do what i need it to do.

      ideally, i could skip the spreadsheet stuff and just provide my own RSS podcast feed, but...will have to investigate.

      thanks!

        i realized that since Glide is not (yet?) native, i can't use it to do app actions -- like 'Share' an article to my app.
