Title of activity

-  Finalise the method going to be used 

Objective

- Planning for Application Development

Content

After decisions made, i have determined to used Mit App Inventor 2. Mit App Inventor's capabilities include:

  • Access to most of the phone's functionality: phone calls, SMS texting, sensors for location, orientation, and acceleration, text-to-speech and speech recognition, sound, video.
  • The ability to invoke other apps, with the ActivityStarter component
  • Programming control just as with a textual language. There are blocks for conditionals (if, ifelse), foreach, and while, and a fairly comprehensive list of math and logic blocks.
  • Database access, both on the device and on the web. So you can save data persistently, and with a web database share data amongst phones.
  • Access to web information sources (APIs)-- you can bring in data from Facebook, Amazon, etc.
