How to make an app for a pizza shop
A pizza order has more parts than most food: size, crust, extra cheese, two toppings, no onion. When orders come by phone and WhatsApp at once, slips get lost. A pizza shop app takes the order with every choice, prices it, sends it to the oven list and keeps the delivery runs in order.

Who uses the app
The counter and the kitchen. If the person taking orders and the pizza maker use different phones or a tablet, connect your own Supabase database so the kitchen sees new orders. An app for customers to order themselves needs it too.
The screens a pizza shop app needs
- New order: Pick the pizza, size, crust and extra toppings; the price updates as you go
- Oven queue: Orders waiting, in the oven and ready, with each pizza's size, crust and notes like no onion
- Deliveries: Ready orders by address for each delivery boy, with call and Google Maps buttons
- Customers: Phone number, address and past orders, so a regular's usual order is one tap
- Menu: Pizzas, size prices, crusts, toppings, sides and the day's offers
- Dough and prep: Dough balls to make and toppings to prepare, based on recent sales by day of the week
- Sales: Orders by day, by size and by pizza, delivery and pickup separately
Features worth asking for
- Price worked out from size, crust and toppings as the order is taken
- Offers applied by the day's rules, like two mediums on Wednesday
- A regular's address and last order filled in from the phone number
- Kitchen queue with each pizza's notes
- Delivery runs grouped by area
- Order slip as a PDF to share or print from the phone
- Sales by size, to plan how much dough to make
Where the data lives
If one phone at the counter takes orders and the kitchen reads from it, the data can stay on that phone. If the kitchen, counter or delivery boys use their own phones, or customers order themselves, connect your own Supabase database; for online payment, connect your Razorpay account too.

Copy this request, change the details to match your pizza shop, and paste it into AppCub:
Make an app for my pizza shop, Kulkarni's Pizza Corner in Nagpur. Screens: new order, oven queue, deliveries, customers, menu, dough and prep, and sales. Each pizza has regular, medium and large prices; cheese burst is ₹100 extra, toppings ₹40 to ₹80. The price updates as choices are picked. Wednesday offer: two mediums ₹399. Find customers by phone and fill in their address and last order. Orders move from waiting to oven to ready to delivered. Group deliveries by area with a Google Maps button. Show dough balls needed by day of the week. Red and black colours.
Tips for a pizza shop app
- Give AppCub the exact price of every size and topping; the order screen depends on them.
- Start with order taking and the oven queue. Add the prep screen after a few weeks of sales.
- Write offer rules exactly, including what the offer can't be used with.
- Ask for big tap targets on the new order screen; orders are taken fast and often on a call.
- Test a busy Saturday's orders on a test copy before you use it for real.
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 Zomato or Swiggy, KOT or thermal printers, or card machines, and it can't show a delivery boy's live location. Slips are printed as a PDF from the phone.
- 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 price a pizza with size, crust and toppings?
Yes. Give AppCub your size prices and the charge for each crust and topping, and the order screen adds them up as you pick.
Will Zomato and Swiggy orders come into the pizza app?
No. AppCub doesn't connect to delivery apps. The app is for your phone, WhatsApp and walk-in orders.
Can the kitchen see orders on a separate phone?
Yes, with your own Supabase database. The counter adds an order and it appears in the kitchen's oven queue.
Can customers order and pay in the app?
Yes, with an online database and your Razorpay account. The money goes to your account, and the order shows up in your queue.
Can the app tell me how many dough balls to make?
It can show how many pizzas of each size you sold on the same weekday in past weeks, which is a good guide for prep.
Can I print a KOT for the kitchen?
AppCub doesn't connect to KOT or thermal printers. You can share or print an order slip as a PDF, or the kitchen reads the queue on a phone.
