Appy Pie Salon App Builder review
A focused no-code salon app builder with booking, commerce and client-management tools.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Appy Pie Salon App Builder is a no-code platform for salons, spas, barbershops, tanning studios and other beauty businesses. It can generate a salon app from a prompt, then support visual branding and no-code screen editing. Core functions include online appointment booking with stylist and service selection, client records, visit history, staff scheduling, appointment reminders, payments, loyalty programs, memberships, retail sales and gift cards. It is suited to businesses that want a branded customer app without building software from scratch.
Pricing is organized around monthly per-app plans. Basic costs $16 per app per month and includes Android publishing, 500 push notifications, 500 app downloads per month, unlimited bandwidth and hosting, and email support. Gold costs $36 and raises the notification and download allowances to 1,000 while adding chat support. Platinum costs $60, includes Android and Apple publishing, 2,000 push notifications, 2,000 app downloads per month, unlimited bandwidth and hosting, and email, chat and call support. Enterprise adds a dedicated account manager, single sign-on, custom data retention, custom API calls and 24/7 coverage. A 7-day trial is available.
The product’s strongest fit is a salon that wants more than appointment booking. Stripe and PayPal support payments, deposits and tips; Google Calendar and Outlook connect to staff scheduling; and Google Analytics supports measurement. Loyalty points, tiers, birthday bonuses, referral credits and recurring memberships extend the app into retention and revenue operations. The trade-off is plan-based publishing and usage limits: businesses needing Apple distribution must choose Platinum, while higher notification or download demand may require a larger tier. Salons seeking an app centered only on scheduling may find this broader feature set unnecessary.
