Summary

As you may have discovered, establishing connectivity from the MIT App Inventor web application on your computer to an Android mobile device or onscreen emulator takes some time and patience. But we guarantee it is worth the effort. As you start building an app and seeing its live development on your mobile device (or emulator), it is not only exciting and satisfying, but necessary and helpful for designing, troubleshooting, and testing. If you get stuck, you can always visit the support pages on the MIT App Inventor website (http://appinventor.mit.edu/) or ask for help in the community forum. Now that the technical setup is over, the fun is about to begin! Let's learn how to make mobile apps with the MIT App Inventor!
