Get Started with MIT App Inventor

App Inventor is an online tool, meaning you can create apps for phones or tablets right in your web browser. If you do not have a mobile device you can also use a Chromebook for both coding and testing your app. We are also working on a browser-only option for testing your apps if you do not have any of these devices. This website offers all the support you'll need to design apps:

  • Setup Instructions for Testing: Set up your iOS/Android phone/tablet or your Chromebook for live testing.
  • Designer and Blocks Editor Overview: Tour the App Inventor environment
  • Beginner Tutorials: Jump in and get started programming in App Inventor
  • Sharing and Remixing Apps: Share your app code with friends to load in App Inventor and remix
  • Building and Installing Apps: Build your app for installing on a phone or tablet (Android only, for now)
