Of course there is space to develop this app for different features.

To start this app

1. Clone this project,
2. Open Android Studio,
3. Select File -> Open... -> choose this project from path where you cloned it,
4. Set Gradle: File -> Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Gradle -> Gradle JDK: set up for 1.8 (if it is necessary),
5. Run the application.

Requirements:

1. Android Studio ArcticFox (2020.3.1) Stable,
2. Minimal Sdk: 21 Recommended: 32.
3. Size of device - recommended minimum 5.00"

What I have learned during this project?

1. I should write README.md up to date -> now it is difficult to put everything in nice order with more details and also with thoughts which I had in various points during develop this app,
2. How to set up:
   • program buttons to work in different goal,
   • layouts,
   • back button,
   • gradle,
   • intent to send mail to developer,
3. How to add:
   • different functionality as drawable, buttons, textViews etc.
   • dialog (alert dialog) when user click back button
4. Important elements and functions, as:
   • make working all buttons and text view,
   • cardView,
   • data class,
   • constants,
   • progress bar,
   • object - special class,
   • setOnClickListener()
   • intent and passing data to next activity,
   • passing and retrieving data via intent
   • part of collections,
   • null safety,
   • generate privacy policy,
5. Publish application on Play Store
6. I should test application more carefully before publish it. Also ask other developers for help to test it. Then there is a chance that someone will take a fresh look at the application and it helps avoid bugs.

Summary

There are many concepts, more of them I saw first time. They need to be repeat to understand them better, but I used many lines of comments to write down explanation to understand, as good as possible, what happen in this code, which functions are responsible for, and also why some concepts I should use in these case.
