What it is
Bitrig enables you to build fully native iOS apps directly on your iPhone, using natural‑language prompts. You chat with an AI assistant that generates Swift and SwiftUI code in real time, complete with live previews and on-device editing. Developed by ex‑Apple SwiftUI engineers and powered by Claude Sonnet 4.0, Bitrig democratizes iOS development by eliminating traditional setup, code knowledge, and desktop dependencies. Once ready, apps can be exported as code or deployed to TestFlight/App Store if you have an Apple Developer account.Future Tools
Why it matters
Truly mobile-first development: Develop iPhone apps literally on an iPhone—no laptop needed.
Accessible to anyone: Great for non-developers, creators, or those learning Swift—no prior coding required.
Instant iteration: Describe, tweak, preview—repeat—all in one fluid mobile workflow.
From idea to deployment: Export or publish with ease, bridging the gap from concept to real-world app.
Key use cases & user value
Creative creators & hobbyists: Build and ship personal apps on the go—without setting up Xcode.
Students & learners: Learn SwiftUI structurally through concrete, interactive generation.
Rapid prototypers: Build mobile MVPs or proof-of-concept features in minutes—not hours.
Solo founders & designers: Ship iOS prototypes or utilities fast, even without a dev environment.
Open Bitrig on your iPhone via its app or Google Colab interface.
Describe your app idea in chat—for example:
“Build a photo filter app with live preview, share button, and two filter options.”
Watch Bitrig generate SwiftUI code on-the-fly, along with a live preview of your app.
Edit and tweak UI components, logic, or layout directly on your device.
Export your app's code, or—if you're an Apple Developer—deploy to TestFlight or App Store directly.
Iterate by chatting—add features, modify UI, or fix bugs instantly, all within the same workflow.
User value in action: Bitrig turns app-building into intuitive conversation. You describe what you want, and you get a working iOS app—in your pocket.
