Create an Android Literacy Games App for a New Language

Would you like to create an Android app for your language with literacy games like word search, memory, choose the missing letter and many other games? The Alpha Tiles app (https://alphatilesapps.org/) has been localized into 45 languages. Creating a new version is as easy as preparing a word list, recording the word list and finding images (with appropriate permissions) for each word in the wordlist. Then I will generate the app for you. The app is free and there is no charge for my time. In this session, you will learn more about the app and the steps that would be required to build the app.
