Important and professional features

Thunkable Discuss
#1

Hello dears,
I would like to suggest a few things that I think most Thunkable users will like:

  1. Blocks similar to Android platform will be easier for Thunkers to use because most of Thunkers use Thunkable for Android and they are familiar to it.
  2. Add more animation effects. They are so very important to make the apps look more professional.
  3. Add more features for the components (more than the ones in Android platform)
  4. Increase apps size.
  5. Custom package name and the ability to import key stores so Thunkers can update their existing apps on Google play.
  6. Add layers feature. (Like one above the other)
  7. Control the shape of components (not only rounded, ovel, etc…)
  8. Add “create components” by users not only Thunkers.
  9. Apply the important extensions on Thunkable to Thunkable x as components.
  10. Make tutorials about the new features “components” when they are ready to be on Thunkable x 100%.
    Best regards!

Hey Hayder,

Thank you so much for your feedback. It’s much appreciated and thankfully we are working on most of it. Please see in-line for more detail.

  1. Blocks similar to Android platform will be easier for Thunkers to use because most of Thunkers use Thunkable for Android and they are familiar to it.
    Which blocks are you looking for? We have made some upgrades to our blocks but we just added an awesome new teammate who is going to be spending a lot of his time on getting our blocks upgraded very soon
  2. Add more animation effects. They are so very important to make the apps look more professional.
    We have added Lottie, a component which lets you add animation pretty easily. Even better, there’s a big community behind it that has created animations for public use
  3. Add more features for the components (more than the ones in Android platform)
    That’s our plan – we are just getting started.
  4. Increase apps size.
    The app size limit for âś• is 25 MB, which is 15 MB more than the current Android platform
  5. Custom package name and the ability to import key stores so Thunkers can update their existing apps on Google play.
    This is already possible for iOS – we are working to add something similar for Android
  6. Add layers feature. (Like one above the other)
    We are looking into this
  7. Control the shape of components (not only rounded, ovel, etc…)
    You can adjust the shape for some components – the property is called Corner Radius
  8. Add “create components” by users not only Thunkers.
    We are looking into this
  9. Apply the important extensions on Thunkable to Thunkable x as components.
    Which extensions are the most important in your opinion?
  10. Make tutorials about the new features “components” when they are ready to be on Thunkable x 100%.
    Got it. We’ll do our best.

An almost empty apk is 11,5 MB instead of the 2,9 MB from before. So the difference is smaller then you think.
