Work offline from android

[Veronica Hernandez]

Hello everyone, I am a teacher and I would be interested in teaching my students with blocky but using phones with android system, I downloaded the offline version but when running it no page is seen, I have used several browsers and nothing, will it be possible to run that offline version from android Do I need to modify something??? I would appreciate any response as help, thank you very much.

It should run fine in either Android or iOS using any browser.  We can look into that further.

However, I really don't recommend using Blockly on a phone.  The small screen is extremely frustrating.  It may end up doing more damage than good, in teaching kids that programming is a terrible experience.  That said, if you have tablets, then it's fantastic.  It's all about the size of the screen.

This advice is common across all the educational programming options.  Blockly, Scratch, App Inventor -- we are all interested in phones, but nobody's been able to create something that works well on those tiny screens.
