How to Turn Lovable Projects into Native Mobile Apps

What Is Lovable?

Lovable is an AI-powered full-stack web app builder that lets you go from idea to deployed application in minutes. Describe what you want, and Lovable generates production-ready React applications with authentication, databases, and responsive design — all without writing code manually.

Thousands of founders, indie hackers, and businesses use Lovable to build SaaS products, internal tools, marketplaces, and content platforms. But there's a critical gap: Lovable apps live on the web. When it's time to monetize through the App Store, most Lovable developers hit a wall.

The Monetization Gap

Building with Lovable gets you 90% of the way there. You have a functional, beautiful web application. But monetizing through Apple's App Store requires native iOS development — Xcode, Swift, StoreKit, provisioning profiles, App Review compliance. These are skills most Lovable users don't have and shouldn't need to learn.

That's where Wanilla comes in.

How Wanilla Bridges the Gap

Wanilla transforms your Lovable web app into a native iOS application with full App Store monetization capabilities. No Xcode. No Swift. No native development experience required.

• Native paywalls — present subscription offers using Apple's StoreKit payment sheet
• In-app purchases — sell digital goods and premium features directly through the App Store
• Push notifications — re-engage users with native iOS notifications
• Biometric authentication — add Face ID and Touch ID for seamless login
• App Store submission — Wanilla handles the entire submission pipeline

The result: your Lovable app earns revenue through the App Store while you focus on building features your users love.
