Exploring with Location Sensor in AI2

The location sensor object is used to communicate with the global positioning satellite receiver (GPS) in your phone/tablet. When the LocationSensor communicates with the built-in GPS receiver, the GPS can determine the location of your device.  The sensor can also work with network/wifi location services.  Finding a location using the network uses very different techniques to determine a location. Location means, the device's present latitude and longitude or it can mean your street address.

Android, Where's My Car? for App Inventor 2

You parked somewhere near the stadium, but when the concert ends you don't have a clue where the car is. Fortunately you haven't lost your Android phone that never forgets anything, and you remember you have the hot new app, Android, Where's My Car?. With this app, you click a button when you park your car, and the Android uses its location sensor to record the car's GPS coordinates and address. Later, when you reopen the app, it shows you a map from where you are to the remembered location-- problem solved! With this tutorial you'll be able to download a created app and then study the annotated blocks below to better understand the app and App Inventor programming in general. This app covers: GPS, TinyDB, and using Activity Starter to open a map.

NFC Cup Game for AI2

This tutorial will demonstrate App Inventor's Near Field Communication (NFC) capabilities. You'll build an application that will simulate the shell game by writing messages to NFC tags in setup mode and reading them in play mode. In order to get the full experience from this application, you will need to purchase readable, writable, NFC tags.

Space Invaders

Create a 2-D arcade game for shooting targets --in this case, flying saucers. You'll learn how to animate objects with the Clock.Timer event and react to events like two objects colliding.

Pizza Party with Fusion Tables for App Inventor 2

Pizza Party is a database app that collects dinner orders from different people and stores them in a Google Fusion Table. The app also uses the WebViewer component to let the user see the entries in the table. Fusion Tables are Google's free cloud database solution. Your fusion table can be read-only to the public, or you can grant users the permission to write to the table. See the tutorial for more information, and begin creating your own shared database solutions! This tutorial is for App Inventor 2.
