1. In this lesson, you created your own sound board app. Give a brief description of it here. Describe its theme, if it has one, and what particular sounds (music or speeches) it plays. Click on Add Files at the bottom of the page to attach your video (or if you uploaded your video to youtube, use insert/youtube from the option above to embed your video in your portfolio page).
Answer
This is a soundboard app with 2 instrument sounds a one whole song. We chose Lovely by Billie Ellish and Khalid because of its unique melody and instruments. To further elaborate on this project, we incorporated two main instruments presented in the song--piano and guitar. When you tap on each photo either the song or instrument will play. When you tap on the same image again, the sound will pause. Or if you tap on a different image when a sound is playing, the current sound will pause and the other will start playing.
2. Describe how you designed your app's UI. What components does it use?
Answer
Weused 3 images for the 3 sounds we were going to play. We also used buttons, labels, and changed the background color. To make a visually pleasing layout, we also used the Horizontal arrangement to a line 2 of the images horizontal.
3. Now that you've had some experience building apps in App Inventor, what do you think about programming. Is it a creative activity? In what ways does it allow you to express yourself?
Answer
I think programming gets more interesting the more you use it and the more you practice the easier it becomes.
