Power Apps is an enterprise service to create and share business apps.

Power Apps is a part of the Microsoft Power Platform that allows for the creation of reports or business process/workflow automation in an online environment centered around Microsoft 365 and its Microsoft Dataverse.

See the official Power Apps documentation for more information.

Like all Power Platform services, Power Apps requires either an Office 365 subscription or a standalone Power Platform subscription.

Other Power Platform members include:
