MIT App Inventor helps people around the world build mobile apps that can make a difference for their families, schools, and communities— even if they've never programmed before.
MIT App Inventor is changing how the world creates apps and how kids learn about mobile computing. Over 400,000 active inventors a month from 195 countries have created more than 22 million apps.
MIT App Inventor now brings that same power and simplicity of app creation to the Internet of Things (IoT) and the universe of connected devices.

Bring computing off the screen and into the world of everyday things!
The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to interfaces between everyday objects and the Internet, opening up a universe of new applications, smarter devices, and wider opportunities. With MIT App Inventor IoT, you can enter this universe as a creator, not just a consumer, even if you’ve never programmed before.
You can develop IoT applications the same way you develop any other MIT App Inventor mobile apps. Now you can program devices, sensors, appliances, instruments, robots— anything that can be connected. Not only that, you can incorporate smartphone capabilities into your IoT creations. If you build an app that turns a light on and off, you can make the light respond to voice commands. If you build a heart monitor, you can store the results on the Web or email them to trainers. If you program a mobile robot, you can add geolocation to the robot’s sensing abilities.
App Inventor IoT is designed to operate with an extended collection of interfaces that link to families of devices. This first App Inventor IoT release works with the Arduino 101 and the BBC micro:bit, and we will be adding more devices soon!

Getting Started with MIT App Inventor IoT
You may already know how to build mobile apps with MIT App Inventor, but if you are new to this system, pleaseclick here to become familiar with some basic functions in MIT App Inventor.
Hardware
To build Internet of Things (IoT) apps with MIT App Inventor, you will be working with external hardware. In addition to your laptop and Android mobile device, you will need the following:
To build Internet of Things (IoT) apps with MIT App Inventor, you will be working with external hardware. In addition to your laptop and Android mobile device, you will need the following:
⦁ Arduino 101 is the first IoT device controller to be included in the MIT App Inventor IoT release. Future releases will include other controllers.
⦁ Sensors as needed for specific projects
Setting up your computer (~ 30 minutes)
You will first need to install software and set up your computer to work with the Arduino 101 device controller. You will then need to connect to the Arduino 101 using MIT App Inventor.
