I am new to AppSheet. Very little programming skills. I attempted to use Android Studio but it was over my head.
My interest is to create a simple Android App that would do two things:
My intent is to have the images and music played PURELY at random so each time a person launches itโฆit will be a brand new adventure.
My goal is to use this app for memory care (Dementia and Alzheimer patients) as a means to refresh, bring back, revisit, etc. their lives. So the images and music would be their own custom library that is personal to them.
My ideal plan is to have the app on an HDMI Android device plugged into their TV so anyone can launch the app at any time right on their TV (for the best viewing device available). But am open to other ideas.
I just donโt know how to get started and hoping that someone could direct me or help me with a starting template that I could tweak to my liking. Or better yet, if someone would be kind enough to create an app for me.
I have tried to find an app in the Play Store that would do this but after downloading dozens and dozens of apps only to find out they are filled with glitches and/or so many ads that the experience is just awful.
Thanks so much!

Hey @RayR, welcome to the community.
First: you might check out the following post; itโs full of tons of helpful tips to help you get stared with using the community to find answers.
I love the idea, and as someone who has people close to me that suffer from mental decline I fully support efforts such as these - so itโs hard to shoot you down like this.
Ultimately the resulting app would be an image viewer, with a few extra capabilities to make interaction smooth. Like I said before, Iโm not sure AppSheet is the appropriate platform for this kind of app, but you could make something kinda work.
Thank you for your input/suggestions, etc. Disappointed with the limitations. I thought AppSheet was a โdrag & dropโ approach to creating an typical Android App that could be put in the Play Store.
I think I will continue my search elsewhere.

Well, itโs not
Itโs mainly for small-medium size business that need to make better solutions for their internal processes. (Among other similar things)
You can check out this page to understand the platform better:
Unfortunately, some videos and misc articles written said this around the time when Google purchased AppSheet - and theyโve gotten a lot of views, spreading that misinformation to the world.
Supposedly it was on their Road Map as of 2019 and many requests for this feature have gone unanswered. Itโs a shame because I have had to now employ Click Up in order to get Drag & Drop/KanBan functionality.
