App Creator
Is there an app creator thats free and easy to use? (iOS, or Android)
I saw one recently, but forgot what it was called.
Thanks!
Do you like games with a twist?
Then you HAVE TO see my two new games: SEARCHLight and Park your carrot! They are awesome games that you just HAVE TO see!

Re: App Creator
To create apps for the iPad, you must have a Mac and pay around $10, so that isn't free.
I don't know about Android.
Regardless, you'll probably have to know C/C++/Objective-C to make one.

Re: App Creator
I think your thinking of a thing your thinking of ( 
) called App Inventor. It let's you easily make Android apps by dragging blocks together, a bit like Scratch.

You'll be able to use it again at the MIT website. It'll be down for a while starting December 31, and it'll be back up on the MIT's Mobile Learning thing website.

Re: App Creator
Processing lets you make Android apps. It takes a long time to set it up, though. The kind of thing where people just tell you "Shh... it's free, don't complain...". I could help if you remind me! 
bye 1.4, we all loved you. but we all outgrew the site. 2.0 is a welcome change.

You only have to pay if you want to publish, you can make and upload for just yourself for free (not counting the mac cost and and ipad cost)
Yeah, I'm mostly inactive. I check in once in a while though. If you want to contact me, I have a contact form at my website, http://escratch.org
