Building native apps for the next billion creators.
Newly — formerly Natively — is a Stockholm-based team turning ideas into compliant, production-ready iOS and Android apps. From a single prompt.
Who we are
We believe building software for the phone in your pocket should be accessible to everyone — not just specialised mobile teams.
Our mission is to take you from idea to a real app on the App Store and Play Store — in hours, not months.
We envision a world where shipping a native mobile app is as natural as writing a doc or recording a voice note.
What we’re building
The world’s first end-to-end compliance-aware app agent.
Today, building the app isn’t the hard part. Getting it approved is. Newly bakes App Store and Play Store readiness into the build process from day one — so what you create isn’t just an app, it’s an app that can actually get approved.
- Checks compliance as you build
- Guides you through review requirements
- Prepares screenshots, privacy policy, terms of service & metadata
- Helps you avoid rejections and ship faster
What drives us
Removing the gap between an idea and a real product.
Founder & CEO Timothy Lindblom describes the shift Newly is enabling as one that reduces development timelines — collapsing the friction between an idea and execution.
We measure success by how many people we let ship something they couldn’t before — founders, operators, students, makers, and teams who’ve been told mobile is “too hard” for too long.
