Google AI Studio now lets anyone build personal Android apps. The apps run on the user’s own device. They launch from a private part of Google Play. They do not appear in the public Play Store. Users can share apps with friends and family in the coming months. A pipeline exists to move apps to a professional developer account. The tool uses prompts to generate the app. Users can edit or scrap the app after creation. There is no charge to build or experiment.

What changed
