App Studio: Create an app

I’ve been using this for our school’s app since right around the time they transferred everything from genapp last fall. It’s been glitchy ever since. Some of the control I had in genapp, it no longer gives me. But it doesn’t seem purposeful that I can’t control them, more like a flaw in the system. It’s pretty aggravating when you’re trying to make quick updates. Sometimes (like today) certain edit functions just aren’t working at all. Last month I accidentally deleted a photo gallery and when I tried to upload the photos back in it would crash after 2 photos every time. Had to give up. It’s otherwise very easy to learn and use.

I give this app 5 stars because I know when I get working it will be great. I downloaded this app a while ago and upon turning it on it loaded up and crashed to the Home Screen. I then deleted the app and tried again and this time I got through the setup to where you can start creating and it crashed and continued to crash at App startup. Going to try again and see if I can get it working I’m excited to make an app with it. Any suggestions on why it keeps crashing?

I never thought an app for making apps would be available for free, but this one is, and it’s very intuitive. There is, however, one issue. When I hit publish, the screen flashed back to my home screen, and I don’t know where the app I made went. Is the app I created supposed to appear on my home screen? Does this glitch commonly occur? Is it even a glitch at all? I wrote this review solely to let this app’s editor know about the problem I had with it, but if people who are not the editor want to read this review, read away. I don’t mind. Just don’t spend all day reading app reviews. There are probably more rewarding ways to spend your time, like going outside or reading a book, or both. 🙂
