App Inventor for Android is a visual blocks language for building mobile apps. Like Scratch, the language’s drag-and-drop blocks interface significantly lowers the barrier to entry. Beginners can immediately build apps that interface with mobile technology (e.g., GPS, Text-to-speech, SMS Texting) and build apps that have a real-world impact. App Inventor has moved to MIT Center for Mobile Learning from Google.
I have used it myself, it took me 30 minutes to create an example app. I did it when it was still hosted at Google App Inventor website.
