Base44: Build with AI

I’m really glad that base 44 released an app. But I’m not happy about the performance of it. As an app that builds apps…. this deserves to be way better represented. It’s basically just a skin of the web and doesn’t function properly. Often messages send when they say they don’t. A lot of times commands from the mobile get hung up and I need to clear them on my desktop. Who knows how many credits all this is using? Hopefully it improves soon. I’d love to put my foot in my mouth on this review and update it.

Base44 did what Replit couldn’t and for a far better price. I tried to build a scheduling app with Replit. I wasted $700 on a broken app when it fell into a loop of breaking one thing while it fixes another. When I asked for a refund, Replit told me to use a cheaper (and worse) model. Base44’s version of my app is incredible. I couldn’t be happier with the build experience.

Weird to me that when I preview a web app it like pulls up a pop up of safari instead of giving you an inapp preview that is seamless. Kinda ugly and clunky how it works now. Feel like this app could be made more usable. Like the chat feature for building your app seems like the first thing that should pop up, and should be more seamless to access, rather than the dashboard.
