Zathrak Lost but trying Posts: 20 Reg: Sep 27, 2012 Kalamazoo 3,700	confirm \| cancel 09/29/12 05:28 PM (13 years ago) More than just a menu app? I'm still trying to get my head around just what the capacity of BT is. I've searched for a dozen or so apps made with BT and they all seem to have one major theme in common...they are all essentially a menu view that links to other menu views with a few ultra-basic plugins like office documents, map view, email, call us, etc. Is this about the extent of a BT app?

My one includes maps, images, menus, sites, and call functions. It's called 'Berlitz Oxford' on Apple's App Store Comments Well you could have a peek at mine.

The content screens are all pretty easy to use, and then you can also easily add quizzes and maps. Take a look at the plugin page for more ideas. Comments The sky is the limit with buzztouch.

For instance have a look at the Think Hopkins app (both for android and ios) created by Susan. You will see how she has worked wonderfully using basic functions of BT to create such a detailed app. Also ceheck one of my app in which i have used a personalised image gallery and chat service.

But we're on the cusp of all new capabilities with the plugin market just opening. The only limit now is a combination of creativity and skill. Anything is possible now with BT. Check out this app for proof: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/workout-randomizer/id540787869?mt=8 Comments Zathrak, What you're describing is based on the historically "built in" screens that Buzztouch started with.

Without some good new plugins all our apps will start to look the same.

I think you may change your mind about what buzztouch can do when you hear that story. Comments @Kaybee, check out Episode 9 of the last buzzcast, to see what can be done with buzztouch.

I have no doubt what CAN be done, you missed my point about what can be done by non coders. Don't get me wrong BT is an amazing platform to get us started, but there is still a big gap that needs to be filled for the non coders that want more.... Comments I have heard that buzzcast already.
