Bubble Mobile Crash Course: Build a Real App from Scratch

Building mobile apps with Bubble.io no longer feels experimental — it’s real, powerful, and ready for production. But if you’re just getting started, the mobile side of Bubble can feel confusing: new UI patterns, new components, and new ways of thinking compared to web apps.

That’s exactly why I created this Bubble Mobile Crash Course.

In this video, we go beyond theory and build a fully functional Task Manager mobile app with authentication, step by step. The goal is simple: help you understand Bubble mobile by actually using it.

👉 Watch the full video here:

What This Crash Course Covers

This is a practical, beginner-friendly walkthrough of Bubble’s mobile experience. We start from the basics and gradually build confidence as we move into real features.

1. Introduction & Documentation Walkthrough

We begin by understanding how Bubble’s mobile platform works, what it supports today, and how to read the documentation without getting overwhelmed.

2. Mobile Editor Walkthrough

Next, we explore the mobile editor and its layout. You’ll learn how Bubble structures mobile screens and how navigation differs from traditional web pages.


Core Mobile Concepts Explained

Before building the app, we break down the key building blocks you’ll use in almost every Bubble mobile project:

  • Views – How mobile screens are structured
  • Lists – Displaying dynamic data
  • Sheets – Bottom sheets and contextual UI
  • Images – Handling user images and visuals
  • Forms – Collecting and validating user input
  • Authentication – Signup, login, and user sessions
  • Stacks vs Modals – When to use each and why it matters

These concepts are explained in context, not in isolation, so you can immediately see how and why they’re used.


Building the Task Manager Mobile App

To make everything stick, we build a real project: a Task Manager app with authentication. This isn’t a toy example — it’s the kind of structure you can reuse for real products.

Features We Build

  • Home page layout
  • User authentication (signup & login)
  • View all tasks
  • Add new tasks
  • Edit existing tasks
  • Update task status
  • Delete tasks
  • Tab navigation setup
  • Settings page
  • Logout functionality
  • Update user profile information
  • Update user photo
  • Update user credentials

By the end, you’ll have a complete mobile app flow and a strong mental model for building your own.


Who This Video Is For

This crash course is ideal if:

  • You’re new to Bubble mobile
  • You’ve built Bubble web apps and want to move into mobile
  • You want a practical, end-to-end example instead of isolated demos
  • You’re building an MVP or prototype and need mobile support

Why This Approach Works

Instead of jumping between disconnected tutorials, this video keeps everything in one place:

  • Learn the concepts
  • Apply them immediately
  • See how they fit together in a real app

That’s the fastest way to build confidence with Bubble mobile.
