More App Topics for Educators
As an educator, it would be helpful to have boxes that correspond to core classes other than math or science such as Social Studies or Humanities.

App
I think you should add an app and create it on the App Store and Google Play Store. This would make Bitsbox accessible to a wider audience and spread the word better.

How to get started when you get a non-subscription box
Please give clear instructions for how to use the site when folks buy a Bitbox from, say, Amazon, which is how I discovered you guys, or as a gift. Perhaps:
1. Got a box in your hands for the first time?
2. Create a Kids Sign-in here
3. Get started here Play with the starter apps, then add apps from the booklet.... Or something like that. I prowled around a lot, not quite sure what to do, before figuring this out.
Thanks for a fun product!
5 votesHey there,
Thanks for the great suggestions! We just rolled out a new website and you’re completely right—the getting started flow isn’t quite there yet. It’s something we’re hoping to work on soon!

How to get kids to learn rather than simply copy...
Hi! This is Josiah's mom. I wanted to let you all know that I've noticed that when Josiah made the programs that we got from the free pamphlet, that there were prompts on the screen guiding him in how to change the code to make it his own. In the Bitsbox we received, those prompts are in the magazine. However, Josiah isn't as interested in reading all the magazine prompts, and he instinctively moves on to making his next app rather than playing with each app as he makes it (hope this is making sense). If there were screen-prompts, he…

More tutorials, a drawing section, and social media.
This is a very unique program. I suggest that you add more tutorials of extended varieties. Also, you should make a section for art, where you can draw with your mouse, and change the pen size, and use varying tools such as a filling bucket, etc. Lastly, although it would be a big project, you should add a social media aspect, where you can share projects, and there can be featured projects, comments, profiles, etc. Please take these suggestions into consideration. Thanks!

Upload to a Studio
I'd like for the kids to be able to share their app to a class studio. I think it would be great if the studio was an iPad with all of the apps, individually named by the student so you know who did it, and they could scroll through multiple pages of the apps.
19 votesThis is a very cool idea for classroom use!
As a workaround, for now you could create a google document that all the kids have access to. They can each hit the share button and copy their app url’s into the document, along with their name and an app title or something. I hope that helps!
