Building a mobile app doesn’t need to be hard. With Appery.io, a powerful low-code platform, you can create an AI-powered app in just a few minutes. In this easy-to-follow guide, we’ll show you how to use DeepSeek AI to build an app that can process text and even translate it from one language to another—no coding required! Plus, you can follow along with our full video tutorial for clear, step-by-step instructions.

Step 1: Setting Up Appery.io

To begin, log in to your Appery.io account and create a new application. From there, select the DeepSeek template, which is built specifically to integrate with DeepSeek AI. This template will give you everything you need to get started quickly.

Step 2: Testing DeepSeek with Base64 Conversion

Once your application is set up, click on the Test button to try it out. For example, ask DeepSeek AI to convert the word “hello” into Base64 format. You will likely receive a message asking you to enter an API key. This key is needed for the DeepSeek AI to work properly.

Step 3: Get Your API Key

Head to the DeepSeek platform, create your API key, and copy it. Return to Appery.io and paste the key into the Model and Storage section of your application. Save the changes.

Once done, repeat the test. This time, DeepSeek AI will respond with the great result!

Step 4: Exploring How It Works

Now that you’ve seen it work, let’s dive into how the app is built. In the Pages section, open the page named DeepSeek. Here, when you click the Send button, it calls the Send Message method. To understand the app’s behavior, open the CODE tab and look at the Functions section.

You’ll find that there’s a global variable, chatMessages, which stores all messages. The text entered by the user is saved in the text variable. The app then calls the fetchDeepSeekStream function, which processes the response from DeepSeek AI.

Step 5: Using DeepSeek for Text Translation

Next, let’s explore another use of DeepSeek AI—translating text. We’ve updated the app’s routing and set the initial page to Translation.

Now, try testing it:

• Type the word “home.”
• Click Translate.
• Watch the app translate “home” into Spanish!

This is how simple it is to use DeepSeek AI to handle text processing tasks like translation.

Step 6: Exporting Your App

Once your app works, it’s time to build it. In Appery.io, select EXPORT, then choose Binary APK. After a few minutes, your app will be ready.

You can then scan the QR code, download the app file, and install it on your phone to see it in action.

Conclusion:

In just a few simple steps, you’ve built an AI-powered mobile app using Appery.io and DeepSeek AI. The process is fast, easy, and requires no coding experience. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced developer, Appery.io offers a powerful solution for building AI-integrated apps in minutes.

Testing ChatGPT Template from Appery.io

In short: the quality of chatbot responses will vary depending on the options settings. But if you need more details, please refer to the OpenAI official documentation site.

Important!

To test this AI technology, obtaining an API key from the OpenAI portal is required. So, open this link (or go to the API Access section of your OpenAI account dashboard) and either generate a new API key or manage your existing API keys.

When done, copy and paste it into the API Key field and you are ready to test the template. Click the START button to begin. Note, that the template also has integrated text-to-speech and speech-to-text capabilities, so you are free to experiment with both entering text and dictating it:

While testing different options, note how the quality of responses is impacted by setting different values for Model, Creativity, and Max Tokens.

Modifying Template

To modify the template to create your own ChatGPT-like app, follow several simple steps below:

1. Delete the Home page. After you have defined what values of Model, Creativity and Max Tokens settings work for you best, loading all the parameters’ selections page becomes redundant. So, go to the App Builder Project view on the left, left-click to open the Home page menu, and delete it:

2. Modify the parameters’ default values. Open the Model and Storage > Storage tab and replace the default values with the ones that best work for you.
