# Add new app draft

An app draft is essentially a version of your app(s). Each app draft can be different from one another from basic settings, design to features.

You can utilize app drafts to store different app ideas/concepts, or prepare for special versions of your app in advance without affecting your live version.

Now, let's delve into how to add a new app draft!

#### **Step 1**

You have three different ways to create your app draft.

Think up a name for your app draft! It can be the official name for your final app, or a name to distinguish the draft from others. It should be 30 characters or less. Click Create app to confirm your app name.

**Step 3**

Choose a suitable theme for your app. A suitable theme can save you a lot of time in setting up the app, as you no longer need to think too hard about what your app layout should be.

Please keep in mind that every theme has a preview for you to check & consider before choosing. Click on the eye icon to see the theme preview.

After choosing the theme, if you are redirected to the page below to start with your app design, you have successfully created an app draft!
