Common Questions

Do I need to know how to code?

No! Apps Overnight is designed for complete beginners. You describe what you want, and our mini-apps generate the specifications, prompts, and guidance you need. Claude Code (the AI) does the actual coding.

How do I use the generated results?

Every result has a "Copy to Clipboard" button. Copy the output and paste it into Claude Code (via the web interface or IDE extension). The AI will use your specifications and prompts to build your app.

Which mini-app should I start with?

Always start with Idea Architect for new projects. It creates a complete project specification that guides everything else. Then use the other mini-apps as needed during development.

Can I save and track multiple projects?

Yes! Most mini-apps let you select a project to organize your work. Starter plan allows 10 projects, Professional plan allows unlimited projects.

How accurate is the AI-generated content?

We use Claude Sonnet 4.5, the most advanced AI model available. Results are high-quality and production-ready, but always review the output and adjust based on your specific needs.
