Google App Maker How to Allow access to user to your App Instance who don't have Gsuite

How do I allow a normal gmail user access to use on the Google App Maker apps I've made. Is this possible ? If you have to have a separate gsuite account for each user using the app then how viable is it ?

Anyway any help would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

Samuel

I know this is an old question, but I just spent too much time to get the answer. So here there is google's answer:

Can I share my apps with users outside my organization?
No. Only users in your G Suite organization can use your app. For some apps, you can work around this limitation by using Google Forms to collect user input in Google Sheets, then import the data from the sheet.

I don't think that the form "hack" is going to help a lot of people, but it's nice they mentioned it.

As I understand it, you do need a GSuite business account ($10/month/user) to use an App Maker app.

I hope that Google is not primarily doing that to make money, but to initially have a smaller number of users and apps, and use the smaller user base to shake out issues and later open it up for the general public (ie for the Firebase platform). I don't see why this would be impossible or even difficult, but of course, hope is not a strategy.
