Coming up with App Ideas

Don’t know where to start? You’re not alone! Even top app makers started with a blank page. Vibecode makes it easy to transform any idea—big or small—into a real app.

Here’s how to spark inspiration:

  • Solve a problem you already have Think about something that could be simpler, faster, or more fun in your daily life. That’s your opportunity.

  • Look at what you use every day What tools do you wish existed on your phone? What apps do you wish were better? List your favorites and brainstorm how they could improve.

  • Ask friends or your community People around you might have app ideas or pain points they wish were solved. Ask and jot them down!

  • Start simple This is incredibly important. Focus on the specific problem that you want solved. Adding many features in the beginning is almost always a mistake.

  • Start with the Halo Feature This is the single, standout aspect or core functionality of your app idea that should be the main focus when marketing your product. It's the key feature that motivates people to download your app. Focusing first on the most marketable features is usually best. Distilling your idea down to its simplest form often leads to creating truly viral apps.

Remember: if you can describe it, you can build it.

Vibecode handles the code—even if you just have a napkin sketch of your idea.

By following the above rules it will increase the probability that your app is created successfully.
