Hi all, I encountered a problem that the blocks on the second screen can not interact with the blocks from the first screen, how do I transfer text from TextInput when you press the button to screen 2 in the Label

Hey @g.gshnik.topx6eb

Please tell us what you’ve tried so far. Have you had a chance to checkout the tutorials on YouTube or that we offer on the platform?

I ask as there’s lots of great resources available here. Usually folks use variables for this type of action.

What kind of app are you trying to build?

Thunkable have `app variables` which as the name suggests, will be available through the app.

When you enter any value in the `Text Input` field copy the value to an `app variable`, then use the `Screen Opens` block of the other screen to assign the value in the `app variable` to the `Label` in the other screen.
