Orchard turns a plain-English description into a real, native iPhone app.
Most AI app builders produce a web app wrapped in a native shell. Orchard does not. It generates genuine Swift and SwiftUI source, compiles the project with Xcode on a real Mac, and hands you an app that behaves like one: native performance, native navigation, and access to the device features a browser cannot reach.
How it works. Describe the app in a sentence or a paragraph. Orchard writes a product brief, designs the screens, generates the code and builds it, showing each stage and an estimated build time as it goes. A typical app takes a few minutes. You then get a live iPhone preview running in your browser, so you can tap through the real thing before installing anything.
Refining is a conversation. Make the log button bigger. Add a rest timer between sets. Each edit rebuilds the real app.
Getting it onto a phone is the part most tools skip. Orchard Connect installs your app on your own iPhone using your ordinary free Apple ID, with no paid Apple Developer account needed. When you are ready for other people, Orchard handles TestFlight and App Store submission under your own developer account, and you can download the complete Xcode project at any time. The code is yours.
Advanced capabilities are built in, not bolted on: camera and AR, HealthKit, maps and location, notifications, widgets, on-device and cloud AI, payments via Apple Pay and Stripe Connect, and 2D and 3D games using SpriteKit and SceneKit.
Free to start with one complete app and no credit card. Paid plans from $19 a month.
