Lists problem

[Scott6189566]

I am new to app building so apologies in advance if I sound a bit silly!

I am trying to build an app where the app user adds a name of a topic. Once they have entered and saved their topic name, they are to then be allowed to add / edit / delete notes based on a number of questions based around this topic. The data is to be stored locally on the phone for recall by the app user whenever they need it. They will also be able to add a different topic and add / edit / delete notes based on the same number of questions based on that topic....and so on. My problem when following the tutorials on this site is that I can create a list but it never seems to grab the data to show in the app. I am also struggling to use the list selection to select the topic before then allowing access to the collection of notes for that topic.

Hope this makes sense?!? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks

Hello! Did you try this tutorial http://docs.appery.io/tutorials/build...?

Didn't even pick that out from the list - doh!!! I'll give it a go now and hopefully I can manipulate the contents to suit what I am after.

Thanks for your help!

Will this way store the info saved by the user locally on their phone or would it need an Internet connection to upload the data to the database?

The tutorial is working to allow me to save info to the database now. I am looking to select the topic from the database (like in the tutorial) and then when selected to take the user to a new screen with the extended data showing (also allowing editing / addition / deletion). Is there a tutorial to show how to link in this way please? It's driving me mad as it is essential for my app!

Will this way store the info saved by the user locally on their phone in a database or would it need an Internet connection to upload the data to the online database?

Hello! You can store data the way you need:
locally (no need is internet connection)

• local storage (no more then 5 MB )
• SQLite database http://docs.appery.io/tutorials/build...
  or use Appery.io DB (or any other DB exposed via REST API)

Thank you for your help. I will work through the tutorial today. Apologies for all the questions - I am a complete beginner so working my way slowly up the learning curve I appreciate your help.

On a paid subscription are there similar templates to this available? Only so I can work backwards with one to see how it links the data together. If not no problem.

Thanks
