Hi, I have a question. Can I add a stand-alone canvas apps,which is created in create app function inside a solution?
You mean create an app in PowerApps and then deploy it straight to Android or iOS?
No I mean I created the apps but not in the solution. I want to add the apps into the solution. Is there any way?
Hi @NurNina ,
Do you want to add the existing cavnas app into your Solution?
Based on the needs that you mentioned, I think the Solution functionality in PowerApps could achieve your needs. Please consider take a try with the following steps:
1. Open your specific Solution in your PowerApps:
2. Click "Add Existing" -> "App" -> "Canvas app":
3. Within the opening panel, switch to "Outside solutions" tab, then find your specific created canvas app, sekect it, then click "Add" button:
More details about adding an exitsing component into a Solution, please check the following article:

Best regards,
Hi, I did read about this. However, right now, in my powerapps, I dont see any "Add Existing" function.
No "Add Existing" button
Is the Solution that you mentioned a Default solution in your PowerApps?
Currently, the "Add Existing" functionality is not supported in the Default Solution in PowerApps. You could consider add a custom solution in your PowerApps, then try it again, check if the issue is solved.
In addition, you could also consider click "New"->"App"->"Canvas app" option to create a new canvas app into your Solution.
Please also make sure that the Solution that you mentioned is not an managed solution. If it is a managed solution, you may not add or create canvas apps into this Solution.
