FluxNative vs Rork

Key differences

• One codebase or two

  Rork's docs say its iPhone and Android codebases can drift, so a change must land in both. FluxNative keeps one React Native project that ships to both platforms.

• Free plan

  Rork's Free plan designs screens but builds no working app. FluxNative's Free plan includes welcome credits to start a working app and preview it: a first look at a simple app. A full first version usually needs a paid plan.

• Testing

  Rork streams cloud iOS and Android simulators, billed in credits. FluxNative previews in a device frame, installs Android builds by QR code and sends iOS builds to TestFlight.

• Code and coding agents

  Rork has two-way GitHub sync on paid plans. FluxNative exports a .zip and pushes one way to GitHub on every plan; paid plans let Claude Code, Codex or Cursor edit the project over MCP.

Full details

What it builds

FluxNative: A React Native project in TypeScript: real native source code you own.

Rork: Separate codebases: Swift + SwiftUI for iPhone, Kotlin + Jetpack Compose for Android, React for web. New projects no longer use React Native.

Getting the app onto phones

FluxNative: Signed Android APK and App Bundle and iOS IPA, built in the cloud. iOS builds need no Mac.

Rork: Builds on Rork's cloud Macs and servers; installs through its iPhone app, a desktop companion, TestFlight or an APK.

Code ownership

FluxNative: Full source in the Code tab, exportable as a .zip any time.

Rork: Two-way GitHub sync on paid plans; no export on Free.

What the AI starts from

FluxNative: Chat, screenshots and images, a working template, or an existing Expo Router app uploaded as a .zip (paid plans).

Rork: Prompts, voice, screenshots, photos, PDFs and video; GitHub or website imports. Figma frames as images.

Preview and testing

FluxNative: Live preview in a device frame and 30-day share links; on paid plans, APK install by QR code and TestFlight.

Rork: Cloud iOS Simulator and Android emulator in the browser; simulator time costs credits.

App Store and Google Play

FluxNative: Uploads to TestFlight and Google Play, sends the listing and Play's Data safety form, submits for App Review and releases to Play production after you confirm. You create the app record once in each store console, and a new Play app's first upload is done by hand in Play Console.

Rork: Uploads to TestFlight after Apple ID sign-in, and to Play internal testing. You finish the listing and submit in the consoles.

Backend and data

FluxNative: Supabase, Firebase, Appwrite, Cloudflare or your own API; the assistant creates tables, rules and functions.

Rork: Rork Cloud (beta), or your own Supabase or Firebase; Google and Apple sign-in.

Coding agents and editors

FluxNative: Remote MCP on paid plans: one connection lets Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code and others create and edit your apps.

Rork: Two-way GitHub sync for Cursor, VS Code or Xcode. No MCP server documented.

Pricing

FluxNative: Free plan with welcome credits to build and preview in the browser; native builds, store upload and remote MCP on paid plans.

Rork: Free plan for designs only. Pro from $20/month for 100 credits; iPad, Watch and widgets need Max, from $200/month.
