1. What do you mean by an application? Where do we generally use it? Explain with
examples.

Ans: An application, is a type of software that can be installed and run on a computer, tablet or other
electronic devices. It is used to fulfil specific tasks in those devices.

• Apps like WhatsApp, Messenger etc lets you communicate with people from all over the world.

• Apps like Microsoft office, WPS office etc lets you create and use documents for work.

• Apps like Siri, Google Assistant help you interact and work with your electronic devices easily.

• Apps like Google Maps, Maps, Google Earth help you navigate or travel without the fear of getting
lost in new places. [Any one of the above Examples should be mentioned]

2. What is App Development? In our project which platform we use for App Development?
What are the advantages of using the said Platform?

Ans: The process of creating and modifying an application to serve a purpose is called App
Development. In our project we use MIT app inventor for App Development.

The advantages of said platform are User friendliness, Free of cost, Use of block coding (no need of
learning any programming language).

3. What is the use of the Speech Recognizer option in MIT app inventor? Under which section
do we find this button?

to text.Under the media section we find this button.

4. What is the use of ‘Button’ in MIT app inventor? Under which section do we find this?

Class_VIII_Comp.Sci_24-25 8/9
Ans: In MIT App Inventor, a Button is a component that allows users to interact with the app by
tapping or clicking it. When a button is clicked, it triggers an event that can perform various actions.
Under User Interface section we find this option.

5. Write down the steps to login to MIT App Inventor.

6. What is Horizontal Arrangement in MIT App Inventor?
