Changelog

Sign In With Email, Right From the Header

Two ways in

"Sign in" used to go straight to Google, which made email sign-in hard to find. The header now offers both.

• Hover or click Sign in in the header: Continue with Google, or Sign in with email
• On mobile, both options are in the menu
• Email sign-in sends a one-time link, and it also works inside in-app browsers where Google is blocked

Cancel In-App and Fix a Failed Payment in One Click

Fewer clicks between you and your plan

You can now cancel a plan without leaving RapidNative, and fixing a failed payment takes you straight to the card form instead of a detour through Settings.

• Cancel subscription on your current plan card (pricing page) and in Settings → Billing, for team owners
• Tell us why you’re leaving; if a cheaper plan or a person can help, we’ll offer that first
• Changed your mind? "Keep my plan" undoes a scheduled cancellation before it takes effect
• "Update payment method" opens the Stripe billing portal directly from the overdue banner and Settings
• Fixed: the Settings page could fail to load, including from the link in payment emails

Login and Sign-Up Screens No Longer Count Toward the Free Limit

All 5 free screens are yours

Full-stack apps come with login and sign-up screens, and on the free plan they used up part of your 5 screens. They no longer count, so all 5 are yours.

• Free plan: 5 screens per project of your own, plus the login and sign-up screens
• Editing, restyling and fixing existing screens stay unlimited
• Upgrade to Starter or higher to go past 5 screens

Free Plan: Double the Credits on Your First Day

More room for your first build

A first build is the biggest generation most people run, and on the free plan it could use most of the day’s credits before you had a working app. Your first 24 hours now come with 10 free credits instead of 5.

• New accounts get 10 free credits during their first 24 hours, then 5 a day as before
• The monthly free allowance is unchanged at 20 credits
• Credits are still usage-based, so small changes cost a fraction of a credit
• Fixes stay free on every plan: Fix with AI, automatic error fixing and automatic restarts never cost credits

Monetization & Native SDKs: RevenueCat, Sentry, Push, AdMob, Twilio

Ship apps that charge money

Ask the AI to add in-app purchases, crash reporting, push notifications, banner ads, or SMS verification, and it now wires the real SDKs correctly — with live store pricing on paywalls, privacy-safe crash reports, and web-preview-safe code that runs natively in installed builds.

• In-app purchases & subscriptions via RevenueCat: paywalls with live localized store prices, free-trial display, Restore Purchases, and instant premium unlock
• Sentry crash reporting with a privacy-first default config and dev/production environments
• Remote push notifications via the Expo push service, with device-token storage and tap-to-open routing
• AdMob banner ads behind a server-side kill-switch and premium gating, with consent (UMP) and App Tracking Transparency handled
• Twilio SMS and phone verification through your project’s API server — credentials never touch app code
• Bring your own accounts: keys go in Project Settings → Environment Variables; the editor preview shows mock prices/ads, real behavior runs in installed builds

Duplicate a Project From the Dashboard

One-click project copies

Try a risky change, spin up a variant for a client, or keep a clean copy before a big refactor — every project card now has a Duplicate Project action that clones its files into a new project in one click.

• Dashboard → three-dot menu on a project card → Duplicate Project creates "<name> Copy" in your current team
• All files and images come across; the copy starts with a fresh chat so version history stays clean
• Environment variables, custom domains and deployments are not copied — set them up on the copy when you need them
• Works on your own projects and on team projects shared with you

Rebuild Preview: Phones Stay in Step With Your Code

No more stuck "Requiring unknown module" previews

Adding a package used to leave the Expo Go preview stuck on "Requiring unknown module" until the project was re-created. The preview server now restarts itself when dependencies change, and a new Rebuild preview action recovers a drifted preview in one tap.

• Adding a dependency restarts the mobile preview server automatically; the app on your phone reloads by itself
• Rebuild preview (the circular-arrow icon next to "Run on your phone") restarts the preview server without touching your Demo database
• The QR shows "Rebuilding preview…" while the server comes back, instead of silently failing to scan
• Phones that reconnect after a rebuild reload automatically, and edits made while a phone was loading are patched in rather than lost

Shared Chat: See Every Collaborator's Messages, Live

Collaborators' prompts appear live, with avatars

On shared projects the AI chat is now truly shared — prompts sent by any collaborator appear in everyone's open editor instantly, and every message shows who sent it.

• Messages from collaborators with edit access show up live in your open editor — no reload needed
• Each message carries the sender's avatar and name, so a multi-author thread reads like a conversation
• Generation status (running, completed, failed) now syncs live across all open tabs too

See Exactly Where Your Credits Go

A clear answer to "where did my credits go?"

Click the credit balance in the chat panel to open a full breakdown — what you can spend, which bucket it comes from, and the order credits are used in.

• Every bucket in one place: daily free, monthly free, bonus, subscription and purchased top-up credits
• Explains which credits are on hold for your current plan, and what unlocks them
• States the spend order, so a balance that moves in one bucket and not another makes sense
• Upgrade or manage your plan straight from the breakdown

Submit Your Lovable App by Link — No ZIP Needed

Convert your Lovable app from just its URL

Every Lovable intake form now accepts your published app URL as an alternative to a ZIP export — paste a link, upload a ZIP, or both.

• Paste your published app link (like https://your-app.lovable.app) on lovable-to-rapidnative, lovable-to-app-store, or the composer import dialog
• ZIP export is still supported — provide either one, or both together
• Same conversion flow and confirmation email either way

Restore Files Is Back — Now for Every Project

Roll back any project to an earlier version

Roll your project back to any earlier version straight from the chat, now including fullstack projects.

• Click the undo icon under any AI response to restore all files to their state at that version
• Or just ask the AI — "undo that last change" restores the previous version automatically
• Now works on fullstack projects too — screens, API, database schema, and seed data all roll back together
• A confirmation dialog explains exactly what will be replaced before anything changes

Import Your Lovable Project From the Composer

Convert unlimited Lovable projects, free

Bring a Lovable project into RapidNative right from the main prompt box — and convert as many as you like, free.

• New "Import your Lovable project" button in the prompt composer opens the same ZIP conversion flow, no need to visit a separate page
• Lovable-to-RapidNative conversions are now free and unlimited — no plan or credit cost to convert
• Works signed in or out; converted projects land in your account and open in the editor when ready

Your First Lovable Conversion Is Free

One free Lovable conversion for every user

Convert a Lovable project into a native RapidNative app for free, and see exactly what a second conversion costs before you upload.

• Every user now gets 1 free Lovable-to-RapidNative conversion, signed in or not
• Additional conversions require the Max or Ultra plan and cost 100 credits each
• A confirmation dialog now shows your free quota, the credit cost, and your balance before your ZIP is uploaded
• If your free conversion is used up, we tell you what to do next instead of silently accepting the upload

Reset Credits Early & Updated Terms

Reset your credits early, any time

Top up your credits without waiting for the next billing cycle, and updated Terms and Conditions with an AI training clause.

• Available on yearly Starter/Pro and all Team, Max, and Ultra plans
• Updated Terms and Conditions with a new Section 8.6 clarifying that prompts, inputs, and generated outputs may be used to train and improve our AI models
