Pocketry Overview: A little idea. A real app.
It starts with
“I have an idea…”
From words to
a real SwiftUI app.
01 / AN IDEA TAKES SHAPE
NO MAC NEEDED NO CODE NEEDED YOUR IDEA, MADE REALA small beginning. A big possibility.

THE WHOLE IDEA, IN ONE SCROLL

How your words become an app

  1. It starts with your words.“A tally counter: one big Add one button, the count in large numbers, and a History tab.”
  2. They become SwiftUI code.Written by AI, checked against Pocketry’s rules before anything is built.
  3. Apple’s own Macs build it.Then they open the app and tap through every screen.
  4. A real app. Not a mock-up.This is the actual Tally Counter from the first cloud build, 3 October 2026.
  5. Apps from your pocket.Your idea, made real — with nothing but your iPhone.

03 — A SMALLER WAY TO START

No Mac.
No code.
Just a little courage.

Apple’s own Macs do the building. Nothing to install but Pocketry on your iPhone. Your idea can start wherever you are.

Pocketry is currently in internal testing, with invited phones only. Building and testing work today. Installing your generated app on your own iPhone and publishing it to the App Store are coming.

04 — ROOM TO EXPERIMENT

Make your first move.
Free to start.

Three free builds. No card. No key needed to start.

After your free builds, developers can bring their own Claude key. Plans are coming.

06 — A FEW THINGS TO KNOW

Good
questions.

Something else on your mind?
Write to us

Do I need a Mac?

No. Pocketry Cloud hands the building to Apple’s own Macs. You describe your idea and review the results on your iPhone.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. Describe your app in ordinary words. If you’re curious, you can read every line of its code inside Pocketry.

Is Pocketry on the App Store?

Not yet. Pocketry is in internal testing through TestFlight, with invited phones only. Join the early list to hear about invitations.

Can I publish my app to the App Store?

That step is coming. Today you can see your app built and tested. Delivery to your own iPhone and publishing are not available yet. App Store approval will always be Apple’s decision.

What happens to my idea?

It is processed to build, test, and revise your app. That involves our AI and cloud providers; code, build records, and screenshots are retained for the build workflow. See the Pocketry Privacy Policy for the details.

How does the early list work?

The button opens an email to info@blacklayers.ca. Send it to tell us you’re interested. There’s no public signup form or guaranteed invitation date. You can ask to leave the list by replying.

The idea is already yours.
Let’s give it a shape.
