Creating an App

February 1st, 2014 at 08:10 pm

So I've played around with an idea for a while for an app. Come to find out that it's already been done. Although I could still make another one just with more info on it.

Now the other app still has potential. Meaning that there are several apps already but they are lacking in the info that they have provided.

The reason I'm not stating more about the product is because I don't want anyone to take me idea LOL.

I will say this. The app with the most info only provided twenty-two (22) items with no audio for $0.99. I plan on have more than twenty-two (22) items for free but for a $0.99 upgrade for audio.

I've read the reviews for the other apps and they pretty much state that it's lacking in items and they have NO audio provided.

Have others made apps and found that it was worth the endeavor?

If this works to my liking then I could have some incoming coming in!

Do you know how to code an app? I just came across a free site that teaches coding. It is a bit geared to kids, but really it is for anyone. It is called code.org. Good luck with your app! Let us know when you have it available.

ok thanks! I do know some coding but I don't know if it's the same as what app code will use. also i'm lucky in thinking that the app I want to make is pretty simple!

Another good site for coding is codeavengers. I'm having my after school Tech Club go through the code.org stages, and they seem to be enjoying it so far. (The zombies and angry bird mazes drew them in quite nicely. )
