Vibe coding app Anything is developing a desktop companion application to support mobile development after being removed from Apple's App Store twice.
Anything, an app designed for coding on mobile devices, is shifting strategy following its repeated App Store rejections. The company plans to launch a desktop version to complement its mobile offering and maintain functionality for users.
The dual removals indicate ongoing friction between Anything's features or business model and Apple's App Store guidelines. By introducing a desktop component, the company aims to reduce reliance on Apple's platform and provide users with alternative development tools.
Details on the desktop app's launch timeline and specific features remain limited. The move reflects broader tensions in the App Store ecosystem, where certain developer tools and productivity apps face scrutiny over functionality, distribution rights, or revenue-sharing arrangements.
Anything joins other developers navigating App Store restrictions by building cross-platform solutions that extend beyond iOS.
