Google has launched the App Inventor this week, a tool that will given anyone the chance to create apps for Android phones.
The software tool is in beta, and Google Labs has created videos and screenshots to help new users.
"To use App Inventor, you do not need to be a developer. App Inventor requires NO programming knowledge," says the site.
The code is written inside the software.
Additionally, the tool offers suggestions and options for app creations, like how to build apps that will link to social networking services, or a new SMS app.
The move should give Android another leg up on the Apple iOS, which requires people to have software coding skills to make apps, and then Apple has to accept the app to their App Store.
