Build a full app with Manus
A user built a whole app on Manus with a smooth start, but ran out of credits and got stuck in a billing support loop between Apple and Manus. · Apr 15, 2026
- What They Did
- The poster says they built a whole app in Manus and initially had a smooth run, then upgraded as their usage grew. The work itself is not described in detail; the concrete issue is that after they ran out of credits, they tried to upgrade again but got bounced between Apple/iTunes and Manus support, while commenters suggested canceling the Apple subscription and paying Manus directly or waiting for the Apple term to expire.
- How It Went
- They say the product showed real promise, but the billing block stopped them from continuing and pushed them over to Claude to keep the project moving. No build metrics or app results are given.
- Worth Knowing
- The main catch in the thread is payments: if you subscribed through Apple, commenters say upgrades and billing changes may have to go through Apple, and one says you may need to wait for that subscription period to end.
Try it yourself with Manus
Help me build [describe the app] as a working app I can use. Before you start, estimate how many credits the build will take and break the work into small milestones. Build one milestone at a time, and stop and show me the progress at each one so I can decide whether to continue. Pause before any step that would spend extra credits or require a payment.
