How to make an app for a bike repair shop
A two-wheeler shop sees many small, fast jobs: twenty services and a dozen punctures on a busy day. An app lets you note each bike by number as it comes in, bill it in a few taps, send a 'ready' message and see who is due for the next service.

Who uses the app
Usually just the owner or the person at the counter, on one phone. The data can stay on that phone. If a second mechanic or a second shop uses it, connect your own Supabase database.
The screens a bike repair shop app needs
- Today's bikes: Each bike by number with the rider's name, the job and the status: waiting, in work, ready, collected
- New job: Type the bike number; the rider and model fill in from past visits; pick service or quick jobs
- Quick bill: Common jobs and parts as buttons with your prices, the total, and a UPI QR to show the rider
- Bike history: Every past visit for a bike number with km, work done and amount
- Service due: Bikes due for a service by date or km, with a WhatsApp reminder button
- Day's total: Jobs done, cash and UPI received, and parts sold today
Features worth asking for
- Bike number search that fills in the rider and model from earlier visits
- One-tap job buttons with your rate card, so billing takes seconds
- A 'your bike is ready' WhatsApp message with the amount filled in
- A Pay via UPI button and your UPI QR on the bill
- Next service due by 3 months or 3,000 km, set when the bill is closed
- A printable or shareable bill PDF
Where the data lives
For one counter phone, the data stays on that phone and works without internet. If mechanics or a second shop use their own phones, connect your own Supabase database from the chat.
How to make it with AppCub, step by step
- Decide what the app does. List the screens you need, for example: Today's bikes, New job, Quick bill, Bike history, Service due.
- Describe it to AppCub. Paste the request below, changed to your own business and details.
- Check the plan. AppCub shows the screens and features it will build. Change them in the chat until they are right; seeing the plan is free.
- Try it on your phone. The app runs live next to the chat. Scan the QR code to install it, and ask for changes.
- Share it. Share it as a web link, an APK file, or publish it on Google Play from your own developer account.
Copy this request, change the details to match your bike repair shop, and paste it into AppCub:
Make an app for my bike repair shop, Ravi Two Wheeler Care in Indore. Screens: today's bikes, new job, quick bill, bike history, service due and day's total. A job has bike number, model, rider name and phone, km and the work. Quick bill has buttons: scooter service ₹550, motorcycle service ₹650, puncture ₹80, chain set from ₹900, brake shoes ₹250, with a UPI QR. Add a WhatsApp 'bike ready' button with the amount. Set the next service at 3 months or 3,000 km. Orange and black colours.
Tips for a bike repair shop app
- Put your ten most common jobs on the quick bill as buttons; it saves typing at the busy evening hour.
- Note the km reading at every visit; it makes the service due list useful.
- Ask for large buttons and big text, since greasy hands and bright light are normal in a workshop.
- Back up the data from the settings screen every week if it lives only on one phone.
- Try a full Saturday with the app before you stop writing in the register.
What it costs
- Describing your app and seeing AppCub’s plan for it is free.
- A new app usually takes 60 to 110 credits. Start with the 2-day trial for ₹99 (150 credits, enough for one app and a few changes) or the one-time App Pack for ₹499. Starter is ₹1,599 a month for 700 credits.
- Google Play needs a paid plan (it includes the Play Store bundle and your app’s signing key) and your own Google Play developer account, a one-time US$25 fee to Google.
- Work that fails or is rolled back costs no credits.
Good to know
- AppCub doesn't connect to billing machines, receipt printers or parts suppliers' systems. The rider gets the bill as a PDF or the message on WhatsApp when you tap the button.
- AppCub builds Android apps. You can also share the app as a web link that opens on any phone; for the iPhone App Store, AppCub’s team can do it for you.
Questions
Can the app work without internet in my shop?
Yes. If only one phone uses it, the data stays on that phone and the app works offline.
Can I bill a bike service in a few taps?
Yes. Ask AppCub for quick bill buttons with your own job names and prices, and the total adds itself up.
Can the app tell me which bikes are due for a service?
Yes. When a bill is closed the app sets the next due date or km, and the service due screen lists them with a WhatsApp reminder button.
Can riders pay by UPI from the bill?
Yes. The bill can show your UPI QR or a Pay via UPI button that opens their UPI app. For card payments inside the app, connect your own Razorpay.
Can I print a bill from the app?
The bill is a PDF that you share on WhatsApp or print from the phone. AppCub doesn't connect to thermal receipt printers.
