Does anyone have any experience with developing an Android app (for a Tablet if that makes any difference)?
If so, would you be able to give me a point in the right direction of how to develop an app as I have plans for my car to have it as my centrepiece of my car entertainment system but I want it to have a few features available at once.
Second question, is it possible to have shortcuts to parts of other apps, within an app? For example within my app I'd like to have controls for 'Google Play Music' along with maybe a speed and distance reading from Endomondo. Then also a shortcut bar at the top.
Below is a example of what I mean for a main screen of my app. (I know it looks very cluttered and not that amazing but this is the 'will it function stage' not the final organising.)
So there is the Music Controls and what song is is along the Bottom (from the Play Music App)
Sat Nav from the NavFree app in the centre with the Speed and Distance readings from the Endomondo app.
Then along the top the dropdown list from the Play Music appthat would then load up the app if any of the selection was clicked. And a row of Icons for shortcuts to any other apps that may be wanted.
The Sat Nav part would be replaced with a clock if the sat nav was not in use.
Hope this makes sense and if anyone knows how to make apps, would something like this be possible to make?
