Backend and user accounts

Database, sign-ups, file storage: one Supabase connection and Bloxks handles the rest.

Most real apps need to remember things: users, their data, their files. In Bloxks, all of that runs on Supabase, connected in one click. You never write backend code: you ask for features and Bloxks wires them.

What you can ask for

  • User accounts: "add sign up and login" gives your app complete, secure authentication screens.
  • Saved data: "let users save their workouts" creates the right tables and hooks them to your screens.
  • File uploads: "let users add a profile photo" handles upload, storage and display.
  • Live features: chats, feeds and leaderboards that update instantly for everyone.

See your app’s data

The builder has a Backend panel where you watch your app live: the users who signed up, the data they created, the emails your app sends. No dashboard to configure, it’s just there.

Test and admin accounts, created for you

As soon as your app has a login screen, Bloxks creates two accounts in your app on its own. You don’t have to sign up by hand or confirm any email: they are ready to use.

  • Test account (an address like test.xxxx@bloxks.app): an ordinary user, to try your app as your users will. It is also the demo account given to Apple when you publish, so the reviewer can sign in and see your whole app.
  • Admin account (an address like admin.xxxx@bloxks.app): it can see and manage all of your app’s data, even tables added later. Signed in with it, your app shows an Admin entry (usually in the settings or profile) that opens a ready-made screen: browse every table, edit a value, delete a row.

Find their email and password in Backend, then Users, under Test & admin accounts. You can also ask in the chat: "what are my test account credentials?". If they are not there yet, click Create now.

These addresses receive no email: they exist only to sign in. Keep the admin password to yourself, since that account can change any data.

A real backend, not a toy

Behind the scenes it’s a production-grade Postgres database with proper security rules. Your users' data is isolated and protected by default, and it belongs to you: you can open your Supabase dashboard anytime.

Good to know

  • Connect Supabase early if your idea involves accounts: flows like "save my progress" feel natural from day one.
  • Start on the free Supabase plan: it comfortably covers building and your first users.
