Make An Android App In 7 Minutes!

[@ChaonicMew]

Man. I just love your videos, dude. You are like the only guy, that shows useful technical stuff! I am following you since... ugh... a year, before you got hacked? Please continue to create that kind of content for us!

Glad to have the Old style back it was always my favourite.

That's great! You still have to know a little something about programming (what block does what), but it's so easy this way. You don't have to worry about code syntax and other issues which arise when you type in the code manually. P.S. Got so excited about this and busted the whole evening making a crude LC calculator :D Works fine! Very basic functionality, but I did few things here and there so it won't throw errors when a user puts a zero pF or nH, or leaves the field empty, or better yet puts a text there instead of numbers

[@KZebrastripes]

So I'm thinking about making an android app, this would be my first attempt. I have a visual impairment so staring at a computer screen is always going to be difficult, so traditional coding would probably not be my friend, however the blocks I feel like I would be able to do without straining my eyes which is a big deal for me. So this is actually kind of nice to know that there is an option out there it'll be fun to see how it works out, but just knowing the options is always a good thing. So I'm really happy I came across this video since this is a first for me and it will be a learning experience. So thanks for all the information and the video.

[@Xtremegamor123]

Was legitimately hoping for a runthrough of Android Studio, how the xml's and Java interact and all that, can I hope for a video like that elsewhere?

[@johnnygallardo76]

when i drag stuff it always stays to the left side why? while yours on the video goes right in the middle why is this?

[@iamb0]

go to screen1 then change align horizontal to Center: 3

[@MathTeacherGon]

what do you use un creating your tutorial video..?

[@nooredindarwish5746]

I have a question please answer Can I do my custom app in this for the Bluetooth rc car thing ?

[@ujjwal8935]

yes

[@bradherrick3197]

Nice video...will definitely explore the MIT apps. Sidebar: I teach college chemistry and would like an app that allows quizzing in both the classroom and lab. Suggestions for what to use (and it really should be for both iPhone and Android (but it has to work for Android...!)? Thanks!

[@erkdoc5]

Neat, this is like coding minus the tedious language memorization. This is a great way for kids to practice coding.

[@drean3807]

what do you mean by file name ? at 5:34 from where do i get the filename path ?

[@RussianBoy347]

Programming in visual interface with blocks is still programming tho. So it's not really "no programming required"

[@-pyrosef-]

nitpicking

[@deepakkandpal8977]

search kunsh deep on youtube for android programming

[@turboromy]

Totally agreed. Without some experience, ppl will get lost right away.

[@jakestone6793]

you are correct - you still need to know the fundamentals of organizing a series of commands that you want the "machine" to accomplish - what language you use is moot. This is programming. People confuse this process with programming "language" which this app does behind the scenes. THAT LANGUAGE you do not need to "program"

[@Ed.E]

Really like your new video style! The hard work's paid off.

[@plushy1emily]

Does the app inventor have a way for you to see the java code (or whatever language it's using) that your app is using? That way, you can make finer changes to it later by editing that code? I know you said this isn't really for professionals, but can it be useful for just starting the basic skeleton of the app and then hand coding it to add the details?

[@Tinkernut]

+Anthony Ghouri Only if you download the APK and extract the XML files from the res folder.

Soooooo, instead of writing your code by yourself you just drag and drop it?? That's genius

[@jawwadakolawala4251]

iv got a problem with the file extension part as my phone does not support sd card..can somebody help me with that?

[@tervezoetrend5782]

Hi Dear, thanks for the video. We would like to convert our website to an app, as you showed, but also we like to add a camera button to allowed users to take photo, and uploaded to our website. How is this possible? Thx. Stveve

[@ScullyBrewing]

Does appinventor have the ability to have a live feed of what the camera sees, as the canvas background?

[@sethmurrow]

Hey Tinkernut! You make some cool videos, I started making videos myself and am really looking for people to give me some feedback. I'm all ears for anything anyone has to say, but I'd love some advice from somebody successful with hundreds of thousands of views, your doing something right!

[@susmoypaul2586]

after building my app it it not installed in my android (nougat). but with app companion it is working fine. what can i do for supporting my app on my mobile ? plz reply.

scratch for android?

[@lexitilde]

It's made by the same people

[@Adam-yd8dw]

Yep, MIT

[@Adam-yd8dw]

Jahin - We were talking about Scratch and AppInventor (made by MIT). We weren't referring to android (made by google)

[@davidirimia6463]

there's also stencyl which is made after scratch and can make full android games. not very known unfortunately, but pretty powerful

[@negerleins]

How do i do so when you click the button it goes on the other screen?

[@ibayanx3410]

I want to make an app for note taking for college cuz tablet is much smaller than laptop but I didn't find any good apps for notes that support Cornell method or something like that so I will make one for me. I have a little programing experience but not for mobile apps

[@herecomesdapain94]

Would it be possible to make an app for an arduino that I can control my motors which is then connected to bluetooth module and sync on it using MIT app inventor ?

[@fluffyluke9174]

how do we publish the apps on google play/appstore

[@supermansintern7122]

how do u put space between the text boxes???

[@Veso266]

is it posible to get rid of about>Invented with MIT App Inventor screen? and to get rid of top grey thingy that has First app on it?

[@Tinkernut]

+Veso266 Both of those options are in the Screen1 settings of the app.

[@monicannonyelu4345]

Can one use it for web to app? Plesse make a tutorial on that.

[@BrazBlue]

I want to make an app that notifies people at their predetermined time of day, so many days( user set )before, for when i am throwing a party. It will also have to load a sort of database of when new events are from i was hoping a google sheet or something else that hosting is cost free. Can this program make an app to do this? or is it too basic to do some of these things?

[@cherrypita1]

i am using a galaxy s6 to make app using details from your video “Make An Android App In 7 Minutes!” i cannot get path to work. s6 doesnt have sdcard. my path when i look at the pics from app are saved in ” Internal storage/Pictues” can you help with this?

[@CJ-pd7xg]

Nice resource for creating mockups. Thank you.

[@freehongkong8732]

have you tried rebooting your computer or reinstalling java ?

[@ultan04]

rebooted, but not java, i will have to try that

[@Renehewitt]

When I try to install the app, I get the error: MIT App Inventor Tools has been previously installed for all users. Please restart the install with Administrator privileges. It is being installed on Firefox. Please advise.

+JamesCACarter i did

[@ebenhaezeralwi2056]

It is amazing how making an app in todays world is made open to everyone.

[@johnnygallardo76]

my pic i put in as the button didnt show on my phone on the app when i scanned it :(

[@TopTributeBands-N-Stuff]

Do we need to download all 4 links or just the MIT link?

[@tarulatashah2633]

It was a nice software but it only saves the image taken but not the frame or text

[@amalsraj9195]

Can I add ads to the app i make in this? Please reply

[@christopherdrohan6030]

how do you delete a duplicate share1?

[@sandeepvk]

ReactNative seems to be used as the go 2 app maker, these days. I have heard its got massive learning curve ? Is that true ? NativeScript , Ionic and PhoneGap where other options. Since I am new to programming I am scared of learning ReactNative, as it deals with functional programming and immutability, which are complex concept for me right now. Have you used ReactNative ? Will you recommend it over other given the context ?

[@SaboAh1]

Man. Cool. But I had "image_description" (u have "txtimage") on Horizontal Arragement! Why? How can I change?

[@captain687]

Can you convert app to iOS? So I have for both android and iOS?

[@thepalm2791]

I started to use this website, it is ok. I saw that it works somehow on mobile too, only I cannot click. If I attach a mouse via otg will it work properly? I want to only use my phone if it is possible.

[@FE59FE59]

Please make a similar video for Windows 10 (Mobile) app!

[@FinlandCrafted]

I'm not sure if there is an option similar to AI2 for Windows Phone and iOS. AI2 only supports android

[@Deontjie]

Why?????????????????????

[@SaboAh1]

[@goldenferrari7785]

yo can someone help me. Im tryna create a siren app but i have no idea what tf to do

[@2bSurfing]

Thanks for the video :) Q: Can you get multiple lines of text displayed on a canvas. The text box does have a option for multiple lines, however once apply is pressed the text only appears as one long single line. That OK for 5 or 6 words, but any more & they disappear of the canvas. I have tried lots of things & can't get it to work :( Can this be done ? if so how ?

[@pujariabhishekh]

I wish i have seen this 3 months ago. It would be a lot of help, yet its an intreasting kind of thing.

[@maxwelzig]

Awesome continue with the great work!!!

[@kshitijjande4435]

which software did he use to make this video?

[@filsonsulaiman912]

Which app did you use to create this app?

[@mathew633man]

Believe it or not, the actual coding is a lot more fun than this GUI stuff. It's still a good way to introduce beginners to develop apps though.

[@4.0.4]

I wouldn't say Java is fun, but I'd sure use that over this GUI nonsense. I think the easiest way would be to get used with HTML5 stuff like Cordova and use that for simple mock-ups. Javascript is just so much more powerful than a GUI yet easy to master.

[@junix1706]

what are u talking about :)

[@benokrizek8020]

Can you create widgets as well??
