App Builder allows you to create your own apps.
You can publish your apps on Google Play.
Simple things can be done without any coding.
For more complex things the coding is done in JavaScript.
You can also earn money by integrating AdMob ads in your app. Both banner ads and interstitial ads are supported. This can be done with no coding at all.

This is much easier than Android Studio, and it does not require a desktop computer.

Features:

- Full access to the Android API.

- Simple things can be done without coding.

- Coding is done in JavaScript.

- App publishing directly from App Builder.

- Share the APK file or publish it on Google Play Store.

- Editor with syntax highlighting (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JSON, XML) and code folds.

- Remote editing via WiFi; this is useful for editing app files on a PC.

- Your own unique key store for signing your apps; you can export/import the key store, or generate a new one.

A few example apps to use as a starting point:

- AdMob: demonstrates the use of banner ads and interstitial ads, and also displays your device ID (which you need to mark your own device as a test device per AdMob policies).
- Camera: a simple app which shows, among other things, how to request permissions at run-time.
- Clock Widget: yes, you can create app widgets (the things that you put on your home screen, like clock and weather).
- Navigation Drawer: this example shows how to setup a navigation drawer and corresponding views.
- Image Gallery: an app that packages photos inside the app.
- Reminder: demonstrates how to use the AlarmManager and receivers.
- View Pager: shows how to setup a ViewPager (a view that displays other views as "pages" which can be traversed by the "swiping" gesture.
- WebView App: shows HTML page which is packaged with the app or comes from the web.
- Website Wrapper: just put in the URL of your website, and you have an Android app that shows your website.
- Website Wrapper with AdMob: Same as above, but also shows an AdMob banner ad.


One approach to Android app design is to use the existing HTML/CSS/JavaScript code and wrap it as an app. This can easily be done in App Builder. If you just need to wrap a website URL into an app, App Builder will do it for you in minutes without any coding.

App Builder is also a great tool to learn programming in JavaScript and Android app design.

Without subscription, you have access to most features, but your apps will run only on the device they were built.
Subscription allows you to build apps that do not have this restriction. Also, some features of App Builder only available to users with subscription.

There are quite a few apps on Google Play that claim to be an "App Builder" or "App Maker" or "App Creator" or something similar. They don't actually allow to create anything functional. They merely allow to fill in a template, choose some options, type in some text, add some pictures, and that's it. While it may seem easy, you will soon realize that you cannot implement the business logic that you need, and so your app built with all these template-filling techniques is no more useful than a static web page.
App Builder, on the other hand, allows you to do almost anything a native Android app can do. Simple things can be done with no coding at all, but more complex business logic or app feature may require some coding in JavaScript. JavaScript is very easy to learn, and you can try your code immediately and see how it works.
