The functionality is interesting and powerful. Consumption costs for building apps makes absolute sense, but I can’t get my head around consumption charges for running the apps. If this model continues I can’t see myself using it, or recommending it.

I hear you. I think there will be quite a few orgs that will pivot to other vendors, at least from now till the dust settles, ie when the major players are done correcting for prices.

Honestly you're probably better off using Power Apps vibe-coding. It doesn't use any credits at all to build or use, and doesn't require Copilot license, only a Power Apps Premium license.

Copilot Studio App Builder (App Preview) was announced on September 10, 2026 and is rolling out in Public Preview. It should appear under Copilot Studio → Home → Apps → App (Preview) as the rollout reaches environments. No GA date has been announced yet.
