Mobile App: Sharing Canvas App with External user on Mobile Device

Posted on by 75
Dear All,
 
I wrote an app that uses Dataverse backend. I would like to share the app as follows: 
-The person to download Power Apps from Apple Store or the equivalence in Android
- Run this application by clicking on it. 
 
I would like the step to publish this app to Apple Store.
 
I bought two PowerApp licenses ($5.00 per license) so that a person can use the app on their mobile device. 
 
I have searched every where on the Web to no avail on the steps to follow. I have written this application and have published it.
 
I do not want the users to be a tenant. Note that  have searched the forum before sending this message. None of the answers provided matched what I need.
 
Meanwhile, I have created two users and assigned each to the PowerApps and Logic Flows license. 
 
Your attention to this request is greatly appreciated. 
 
Sincerely,
Isaiah A

    Power apps doesn't do what you are trying to do.
     
    1) Every user that runs an app has to have a license
    2) There is no way to publish an app to the Apple or Android store
    3) Dataverse always exists in a Microsoft 365 tenant
     
    You can't find information on how to do what you are trying to do because its impossible. Its not the way Power Apps is designed to work.
