IndeHub Hackathon 2026 — ₹1,00,000 Cash Pool for Apple Platform Apps — Frequently Asked Questions

There is a total cash pool of ₹1,00,000, which is shared among the winning entries. Winners also receive hardware prizes, though the organisers have not yet announced what those are. The exact rupee amount attached to each rank has not been published.

The build window runs from July 20, 2026 to August 7, 2026, and August 7 is the submission deadline. Entries must be in by that date to be considered for the shortlist and the Bengaluru finale.

It is open to Indian residents, including developers, designers and product builders who work with — or want to work with — the Apple ecosystem. You can enter on your own or as part of a team.

Both formats are allowed. Solo participants and teams are equally eligible, and the organisers have not mentioned any limit on how many people a team may have.

You should build a native app for Apple platforms — iOS, macOS or visionOS. That means using Apple's own frameworks, such as Swift, SwiftUI or UIKit, and targeting devices like iPhone, iPad, Mac or Apple Vision Pro.

No. There are no predefined themes or tracks, so you are free to choose your own idea. The judging focuses on how creative the concept is and how well the app is technically executed.

No. The listed eligibility only requires Indian residency. There is no mention of a company registration, DPIIT startup recognition or MSME certificate as a condition for entry.

No. This is a competition with cash and hardware prizes, not an investment. There is no equity involved and nothing to pay back — the app itself remains yours.

Only if you are shortlisted. Most of the hackathon takes place remotely during the build phase, but the top entries are invited to the in-person finale in Bengaluru, where finalists present their apps to the judging panel.
