Groupon has a lot of interesting deals that we can come across every now and then. I was attracted to this particular deal when I first saw it.
For just $25, you can learn to create an app for your iphone, ipad, and android phone. That sound like an attractive deal and think of the satifaction of being able to create an app for my phone instead of downloading one created by others.
The course lasted for 3hrs. Within half an hour, I was almost falling asleep.
Firstly, the course is held at an inconvenient location. It is held in an industrial building at Kembangan on a Sunday. Participants are required to bring their own laptop for the course. The classroom is too small and too packed with people. Even before the class start, I am already lowering my expectation for the standard of this course.
The instructor is not a good speaker. He did not seem to be able to hold the attention of the students for long, except for those who were determined to get their money worth.
The worst part of this course is, the so call creation of the app, is done via a webpage, free to public. If you are thinking of creating a game app or productivity app, you are in for a disappointment. All the instruction taught was to create an app fo a RSS feed. Actually I won't say he taught us to do it. Anyone who can read should be able to follow the instructions stated on the website and create the app easily all by themselves.
Don't think of asking too many questions. The instruction is not able to give a direct answer to most of the questions asked. It is fairly obvious that he is not able to answer questions that is not found in the faq of the website.
One important point to note is that the app created during the course, you actually can't download it to your phone at all. The best that you can do is only a preview of the app on the website that you use to create the app. To download the app to your phone, you will need to pay to create a developer account with itune. Submit the app to itune for review and if it is approved, you can then download it from itune.
Last but not the least, the instructor took sometime to explain this course that he is conducting which will help you to generate unlimited income. For just a low fee of $1,600, he will teach you how to create a game app. $1,600!!! I already felt that he had cheated me of my $25 for this course. Do I look like I am stupid enought to fork out $1,600 to attend his course again? Dream on!
If anyone is interested to create your own app, you can try it out at www.appmakr.com or http://hitzapps.com/.
Have fun at the website. You should be able to create your own app at NO COST at all.
