FAQStart Building

Welcome to OpenV2

Build real native iOS and Android apps by chatting with AI — from idea to phone in minutes.

OpenV2 is an AI-powered development platform for mobile apps. Describe what you want in plain language, and OpenV2 generates real React Native (Expo) code, previews it in the browser, and helps you ship to the App Store and Google Play.

Tip: New here? Start with Quickstart to create your first app in under five minutes.

What you can build

OpenV2 is built for native mobile apps — not web pages or landing sites. You can create:

  • Productivity and habit trackers
  • Social and community apps
  • E-commerce and marketplace apps
  • Fitness, wellness, and health tools
  • SaaS companion apps with a real backend

Every project runs on Expo SDK 54 with React Native — the same stack used by Discord, Shopify, and Microsoft.

How OpenV2 is different

Chat-first builder

Describe screens, flows, and logic in natural language.

Live preview

See your app in a phone frame instantly — no local setup.

V2 Cloud

Optional managed backend with auth, database, and file storage.

Native builds

Generate `.apk`, `.aab`, and iOS builds from the platform.

You also get real device preview (Expo Go QR), full code access in the workbench editor, and exportable Expo projects you own.

The OpenV2 workflow

  1. Describe your app idea in the chat — include style references if you want (Spotify, Linear, Notion, etc.)
  2. Preview the running app in the browser workbench
  3. Refine by chatting more or editing code directly
  4. Connect a backend with V2 Cloud when you need accounts, sync, or uploads
  5. Build & publish native binaries when you're ready for the stores

Who is OpenV2 for?

OpenV2 works for founders, designers, and developers:

  • No-code builders can ship prototypes without writing syntax
  • Developers get a fast starting point with exportable, standard Expo code
  • Teams can iterate on product ideas before committing engineering time

You always retain full ownership of the apps and code you create on OpenV2.
