What do users complain about in AI app builders?

Users express frustration that AI app builders fail to establish trust for authority-based products, and skepticism about their ability to generate meaningful revenue. Additionally, there is concern that AI-generated code often has hidden issues, and that AI cannot replace human judgment for conversion optimization.[4]

A key complaint is that AI personas cannot sell real-world authority products (fitness, medical, legal) because buyers instinctively distrust a synthetic entity without a body or credentials. Another complaint is that AI-generated code often has hidden issues like missing imports or half-wired auth, making live preview crucial. Also, AI can generate a landing page quickly but fails to produce one that converts without research, strategy, and human judgment.[3]

Some users note that a simple app helping couples connect daily can generate over $10,000 MRR by addressing a common relationship need affordably, suggesting potential for niche success. Additionally, a walking app that uses financial stakes and streak mechanics similar to Duolingo can drive high engagement.[2]
