app

when i finished with my file  i published it on flash and saved it as apk file i then sent  the apk file to my email and downloaded it too my phone where it was able to work


This is an example of the coding which i used  throught out my project too achieve the correct navagation which i spoke of in my previous blog post

my character

  My character was an animated school boy who talked through speech bubbles  i animated him too blink while speech bubbles appeared in the app i got the  inspiration for this character  as my target audience are young kids i wanted too be able too relate to the app and therefore learn as they are engaging with  the app .

app creation

     Types of buttons which i used for my app




For coding my app i used mostly my timeline navigation coding

But depending on what your trying too do you can make your buttons swipe or you can animate your buttons by changing them to movie clips and this is very expiremental as you doo alot with them i made my buttons very simple once you touch the  on the buttons from your andriod device it reacts 

Development apk




This is another example of another website which i used for my development of my app as it explains building a simple user interface is not hard as long as you follow  the steps involved I feel like i could have expirementated alot more with my app but i do like the fact that at the end of the day i was able to create it without too much trouble  especailly with all the help online it was a learning experience .

App Creation

This is where the debuging is on flash when creating the  app  every device has a certificate which allows the device to freely interect with other devices without the danger of getting malious files online  what is done on this page is simple the certificate can be created and then the certificate you chose your own password this allows you too publish your app as a apk file once your finished creating it and then launch it on either your andriod device tablet etc 

As seen below this is where you pick your files publishing name and password you may also make an icon and put it where there is an icon is placed in flash 

App creation


               
On Flash The  first important thing was too open a new file,  and use air for Andriod. 
After doing this I would go too flashes Andriod settings and set up the dimensions and get ready to debug flash This would in turn allow me too connect my phone too my usb without flash interfering with what i was doing.

Creating apps is new for me soo I did decide too look at many different sources too make sure  I was doing the right thing all along
As i feel you can never goo wrong with guides 



I would also look at a few websites such as the official air for andriod  website  too understand how it fully worked i did find it confusing from time too time  creating something which ive never done before but over time i got the hang of the new terminology and the way of looking flash which i had never done before.

Using flash to create my app

                                         
USING FLASH TOO CREATE MY APP


To create my app  the first thing which i did was look at online videos as they would help me get a better understanding of using flash  in this manner the first place i went too was youtube as there were many of these useful videos which helped me get a better grasp on creating this app

I proceeded to open up flash and attempted to create my app while at the same time looking at different videos for guidence on the way
