Lovable vs Replit: prices, plans and what each one builds

Lovable and Replit both make an app from a description. Lovable gives you a web app as code and syncs it to GitHub on every plan. Replit is a coding workspace whose Agent can also build a native iPhone app and upload it to the App Store. If you want a small app to share with friends or family, iqobi is a third option.
