Create an app for the outdoors!

Create a game or an app that is designed to be used outdoors. Be creative with your use of the built-in functions and blocks of Pocket Code and build an app that has you interacting in any way with your environment!

Do not use abbreviations in your program, and structure it clearly. Upload your program to Catrobat’s sharing platform.

Create a screen recording video showing how to use your app and what features it has. Before doing the screen recording, turn on the option in the developer’s option on your phone that allows to see touch positions on the screen. If your app uses some of the sensors of your phone, e.g., the inclination sensors, also add a sequence in your video that shows this from an outside perspective (you will need a second person or a webcam for that part of the recording). At the end of your video, also explain at least one non-trivial feature related to the outdoor functionality of your app.

Use your mother tongue throughout the video. Your video may have visually appealing intro and end sequences created with Pocket Code. Publish your video on YouTube using an appropriate title and a good description in your mother tongue. Add English language captions to your video through YouTube’s interface for adding captions.
