Snappii (sometimes stylized SnAPPii)[1][2] is a cloud-based, codeless platform for rapid mobile app development largely for businesses and enterprises.[3][4] As of 2015, the company has helped produce 26,000 mobile apps[4][5] in 29 different industries[3] and 17 languages.[6] Some Snappii-produced apps include a Starbucks location finder, a public safety app for college campuses, and a mobile PDF form uploader.[4] Snappii can be used on both iOS and Android devices.[3]

History

Snappii was founded in 2010 by Alex Bakman,[7][8] who also serves as CEO.[9] The Snappii platform was launched in 2011,[6] primarily as a tool for iPhone app creation. The company's iPad and Android app creation systems were still in beta in November 2011.[10] In 2012, Snappii added more compatibility and support for Android devices.[11] Also in 2012, customers created the 6,000th app using the Snappii platform.[12]

In 2015, the Snappii released a series of new features ranging from audio and video support[13] to enhanced charting capabilities.[1] They also announced a new offer called "5 Weeks-$5K-Guaranteed App," which guarantees customers a custom native app within five weeks for $5,000.[3][14] In August 2015, the company raised $250,000 in investor funding.[15] As of 2015, the Snappii platform has produced around 26,000 applications[4] in 17 languages[6] for companies in 29 different industries.[3]

Products

Snappii offers a cloud-based, codeless platform for developing business and enterprise mobile applications on iOS and Android devices.[3][4] Users (including non-programmers) can create their own apps using WYSIWYG formatting rather than source code.[10][12] Snappii itself can also create custom native apps for clients.[3] Whether the client opts to create their own app or enlists the help of Snappii programmers, they must pay a monthly hosting fee.[10] Snappii has helped develop apps for companies in 29 different industries, including health care, construction, public safety, retail, oil and gas, and others.[3][16] Features on the Snappii platform include audio and video support,[13] charting capabilities,[1] and the ability to upload PDF forms (via the My PDF Form Manager app).[2][4]
