The Lovable preview looks great. Then a first-time visitor opens the published URL on their phone, and something else happens. The AI agent that built the app never sees that URL unless you put it in front of it. Here are ten problems that show up again and again in AI-built apps right before launch, and how to catch each one yourself in a real browser. 1. It works in the preview and breaks on…

The article "10 Bugs Every Lovable App Has Before Launch" outlines common issues that arise when deploying AI-built apps to live domains. The primary concern is that the preview environment differs from the live environment, leading to a variety of problems that are not immediately apparent. To address these issues, the author provides a 15-minute routine for checking the app on the live domain, including opening the live URL in a private window, checking for 404 errors on internal routes, verifying the presence of environment variables, testing buttons on a real phone, checking for overflow and unreadable text, monitoring the console for errors, testing login flows, confirming form submissions, checking for missing assets, and testing deep links.

By following these steps, developers can catch and fix these common bugs before the app goes live, ensuring a smoother user experience.
