Make an app for your tiffin service
Today’s menu, a cart and orders that arrive on your WhatsApp, in one Android app with your kitchen’s name on it. Describe it in a chat and AppCub builds it. No coding needed.
Describe your app and see the plan for free. Build it with a 2-day trial for ₹99.
These are screens of a real app AppCub built in a test in October 2026. AppCub made up the dishes and prices as examples; yours replace them.
What your app can do
Tiffin apps usually start with these. Ask for what your kitchen needs:
Today’s menu
Lunch thalis, dinner specials, rotis and extras, with veg or non-veg markers and prices.
Cart and slots
Customers add dishes, pick lunch or dinner and enter their address.
Orders on WhatsApp
Tap “Send order” and WhatsApp opens with the order, total and address, addressed to you.
Past orders
Customers see what they ordered before and order it again in one tap.
Your kitchen’s name
Your name, logo and colours, and your timings, such as “lunch orders by 1 PM”.
More when you need it
Monthly subscriptions, a weekly menu, holidays, delivery areas. Ask in the chat.
What to write
Copy this, change the details to match your kitchen, and paste it into AppCub:
Make an app for my tiffin service, Aunty’s Ghar Ka Tiffin in Pune. Show today’s menu: standard thali ₹110, paneer thali ₹160, extra roti ₹10, all pure veg. Customers add items to a cart, choose lunch or dinner, enter name, phone and address, and send the order to me on WhatsApp at 98XXXXXXXX. Lunch orders close at 11 AM. Keep their past orders so they can reorder. Orange colours.
Paste and send
AppCub asks if something important is unclear.

What it costs
- A tiffin app like the one above usually takes 60 to 110 credits to build. Describing it and seeing AppCub’s plan is free; building it starts with a 2-day trial for ₹99 (150 credits, enough for the app and a few changes).
- To publish on Google Play you need a paid plan, which includes the Play Store bundle and your app’s signing key. Starter is ₹1,599 a month for 700 credits.
- Work that fails or is rolled back costs nothing, and every change comes with one free fix.
Good to know
- Orders sent on WhatsApp reach you without any database. To change the menu yourself from your phone every day, or keep a list of all orders, ask AppCub to connect a Supabase database (it has a free plan).
- AppCub builds Android apps and can put your app online as a web link that opens on any phone. For the iPhone App Store, our team can do it for you.
- To put the app on Google Play you need your own Google Play developer account, which costs a one-time US$25 fee to Google.
Questions
How do I change the menu every day?
Ask for an owner screen where you edit the menu. For the change to reach every customer’s phone, the app needs an online database: connect Supabase from the chat. Without it, you change the menu by asking AppCub and updating the app.
Can I run monthly tiffin subscriptions?
Yes. Describe your plans, for example 26 lunches a month, and how you track them, and AppCub builds it.
Can customers pay online?
You can ask for a payment button that uses your own Razorpay account. Connect Razorpay and a Supabase database from the Connectors page first. Many tiffin services start with UPI or cash on delivery.
Can I share the app on WhatsApp before it’s on Google Play?
Yes. Put the app online as a web link and share the link, or share the installable APK file.
Can I write to AppCub in Hindi or Hinglish?
Yes. Write the way you normally do, in English, Hindi or Hinglish. You can also ask for the app’s own buttons and labels in Hindi.
What if I want to change something later?
Open the app in AppCub and say what should change, or click the part of the app you want changed. You can always go back to an earlier version.
