Is it necessary to learn to code for building apps for Android and iOS devices?
The answer is no there hundreds of software and websites that provide us with readymade codes and apps just we have to customize the apps according to our needs and that's all our app becomes ready in a matter of minutes. Even if you want more control we can use coding through blocks in which you don't have to write any codes just use coded blocks according to our work and make our app.
Let's look at some of these websites where you can build your app without coding. There are several sites but we goona look in some site that is popularly used appypie app maker, Thunkable, AppsGeyser.

Very popular android app development site. The app can be developed without any java or c++ coding with only a simple block as code and dragging and dropping these blocks to get the desired features. It takes a few days to get learned to its features compared to an android studio which requires years of practice.

All the apps built on Thunkable will be work for both Android and iOS devices now that is a cool feature in my opinion.
