With the huge number of mobile applications in Google Play and App Store and how they make our mobile phones more useful, you can’t help but assume that one must be a fully qualified programmer with years of experience to create a productive mobile application. From learning the basics of programming to writing the codes out, it’s probably a pretty tough thing but did you know you can create a nice little mobile app without knowing a damn thing about programming? Although it may not be as professional as those ones you see at Apple Store but still, you can create something for your personal use and even share with friends.

I accidentally came across Capriza yesterday and I had the time to use if for a while.

It’s isn’t that hard to use as well.

AppMakr is a great platform that lets you publish your app like a real developer. The offer premium service you can subscribe to if you want the the best out of it but the free service they provide too is enough if you just want a simple mobile app.
