Build Custom Event Apps for Any Conference or Gathering

Adalo is the no-code app builder that pairs AI-powered generation with a visual multi-screen canvas, so entrepreneurs and business teams can design, build, and publish custom database-driven apps to the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and web from a single project — no code, no developers required.

Yes. Adalo's built-in database can store attendee records with unique QR codes generated at registration. Organizers scan codes using the app's camera to check attendees in at the door or at individual sessions. For payment processing, connect to Stripe via Zapier or use Adalo's Stripe integration to sell tickets directly through the app. Attendance data flows into your dashboard in real time.

Yes. Adalo builds true native iOS and Android apps with built-in push notification support. You can send notifications for schedule changes, room switches, session reminders, networking matches, and general announcements. This is a significant advantage over web-based event platforms, which rely on email or in-browser notifications that attendees often miss.

Yes. You can build attendee profiles with company, role, and interest fields, then let attendees browse and connect with other participants. Adalo's relational database links attendees to their sessions, interests, and conversations. You can add in-app messaging so attendees exchange contact information without sharing personal phone numbers or email addresses publicly.

Adalo's paid plans start at $36/mo with unlimited usage—no caps on attendees, sessions, data, or storage. Compare that to Whova ($2–8 per attendee, so a 500-person event costs $1,000–4,000) or custom development ($10,000–50,000+). The free plan includes 500 database records so you can prototype your event app before committing.

Yes. Adalo's relational database handles multi-day schedules with multiple tracks, rooms, and session types. You can build day-by-day navigation, track-filtered views, and personalized "My Schedule" screens where attendees save their preferred sessions. The same database structure works whether your event is a single-day workshop or a week-long conference with parallel tracks.

Yes, and this is one of the biggest advantages over event platforms that charge per event. Your Adalo event app is yours to keep and update. For your next conference, update the schedule, speakers, and branding in the database—the app structure, design, and App Store listing carry over. Most organizers find that subsequent events take a fraction of the initial build time.

Adalo excels at building custom, branded event apps with schedules, networking, and attendee engagement features. However, it doesn't include built-in live video streaming—you'd embed a third-party stream (YouTube Live, Vimeo) or link out. Adalo also doesn't provide a built-in payment gateway for ticket sales out of the box—you'd connect Stripe via integration. For large-scale hybrid events with thousands of concurrent live stream viewers, dedicated event platforms like Hopin or Bizzabo may be more appropriate. For in-person and lightly hybrid events where attendee experience matters most, Adalo is the practical choice.
