 CHAPTER 3

METHODOLOGY /METHOD/EXPERIMENTAL SETUP

Identify the core objectives of the Home Workout App, including providing various
workouts, instructional videos, and seamless navigation between app sections.

Technology Use to Build Home Workout App:

Android Studio Tool:
Android Studio provides a user-friendly interface where developers can write
code using programming languages like Java or Kotlin. It also comes with
features like an emulator, which lets developers test their apps on virtual
Android devices without needing a physical device. Plus, it offers tools for
finding and fixing errors in the code, so developers can make sure their apps
run smoothly before releasing them to the world.

Xml Use as Fronted:

XML, or Extensible Markup Language, is a markup language that's commonly
used for storing and transporting data. In simpler terms, you can
think of XML as a way to organize and structure information in a format that's
easy for both humans and computers to understand.

Java Use as Language to Build Logic for App:

Java is a high-level programming language that's widely used for developing

a variety of software applications, including Android apps. It's known for its
simplicity, versatility, and platform independence, making it an excellent
choice for building robust and scalable applications.

15
Library Use in Android Project:

These are import statements for various classes and packages used in Android
Studio. Here's a brief explanation of each import statement and the
corresponding libraries or classes they represent:

1) import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity:

This imports the AppCompatActivity class from the androidx.appcompat

package. AppCompatActivity is a base class for activities that use the support
library action bar features, allowing backward compatibility with older
versions of Android.

2) import android.content.Intent:

This imports the Intent class from the android.content package. Intent is used
to perform operations such as starting activities, services, or broadcasting
messages between components within an Android application.

3) import android.os.Bundle:

This imports the Bundle class from the android.os package. Bundle is used
to pass data between Android components, such as activities or fragments,
through the Intent object.

4) import android.view.View:

This imports the View class from the android.view package. View
represents a UI component that can be displayed on the screen, such as
buttons, text fields, or layouts. Views are used to create the user interface
of an Android app.

16
5) import android.webkit.WebSettings:
This imports the WebSettings class from the android.webkit package.
WebSettings is used to configure settings and properties for a WebView,
which is a component used to display web pages within an Android app.

6) import android.webkit.WebView:

This imports the WebView class from the android.webkit package.

WebView is used to display web pages or web content within an
Android app, providing a built-in web browser functionality.

7) import android.widget.Button:
This imports the Button class from the android.widget package. Button is
a UI component used to create clickable buttons in an Android app,
allowing users to perform actions or trigger events when clicked.

8) import android.graphics.Color:
This imports the Color class from the android.graphics package. Color
is used to represent and manipulate colors in an Android app, allowing
developers to set the color of various UI elements programmatically.

These import statements allow you to use the corresponding classes and
libraries in your Android Studio project by referencing them in your
code.

Dependencies:
In Android Studio, a "dependency" refers to an external library or
module that your project relies on to provide additional functionality or
features. Dependencies are typically included in your project's build
configuration and are automatically downloaded and integrated into
your project during the build process.

17
Here's a breakdown of what dependencies are and how they are used in
Android Studio:

External Libraries: Dependencies often consist of external libraries or

modules that are developed by third-party developers or organizations.

These libraries provide reusable code, components, or APIs that extend the
functionality of your Android app beyond what is provided by the Android
framework itself.

Gradle Build System: In Android Studio, dependencies are managed using

the Gradle build system. Gradle is a build automation tool that is used to
define and manage project dependencies, compile source code, and
package the app for distribution. Dependencies are typically specified in
the build.gradle files of your project.

Dependency Configuration: Dependencies are declared in your project's

build.gradle files using a specific syntax. This includes specifying the
dependency's group ID, artifact ID, and version number. Gradle then
resolves these dependencies and downloads the required libraries from
remote repositories, such as Maven Central or JCenter.

Transitive Dependencies: Dependencies can also have their own

dependencies, known as transitive dependencies. When you include a
dependency in your project, Gradle automatically resolves and includes

any transitive dependencies required by that dependency. This helps

manage complex dependency graphs and ensures that all required
libraries are included in your project.

18
Library Integration: Once dependencies are resolved and downloaded, they
are automatically integrated into your project's build process. This allows
you to use the functionality provided by the libraries in your code without
having to manually manage the inclusion or integration of external code.

Version Management: Dependency management systems like Gradle also

provide features for version management, allowing you to specify the
exact version of a library that your project depends on. This helps ensure
consistency and compatibility across different versions of your app and its
dependencies.

19
Main Component in Android Development:
AndroidManifest.xml:
In Android development, the "AndroidManifest.xml" file, commonly referred
to as the "manifest file," is an essential component of every Android app. It
serves as a configuration file that provides essential information about the app
to the Android operating system and the Google Play Store.

Here's an overview of the AndroidManifest.xml file and its significance:

App Information: The manifest file contains metadata about the app, such as
its package name, version number, and name of the app's launcher activity (the
activity that serves as the entry point for the app).

Permissions: Android apps require various permissions to access system

features and resources, such as the camera, location services, internet
connectivity, and device sensors. The manifest file declares these permissions,
informing the Android system and users about the app's
20
requirements for accessing sensitive data and functionalities.

Components Declaration: The manifest file declares the components of the

app, including activities, services, broadcast receivers, and content providers.
Each component must be declared in the manifest to be recognized by the
Android system.

Intent Filters: Intent filters specify the types of intents that a component can
respond to. For example, an activity may specify intent filters to indicate that
it can handle certain actions, such as opening specific types of files or
responding to specific types of data.

Application Configuration: The manifest file allows developers to

configure various aspects of the app, such as the minimum and target SDK
versions, the app's theme and icon, supported screen orientations, and
hardware and software features required by the app.

Android Studio, on the other hand, is the official integrated development

environment (IDE) for Android app development, provided by Google. It is
based on IntelliJ IDEA and provides developers with a comprehensive set of
tools for building Android apps efficiently.

Here, how Android Studio relates to the AndroidManifest.xml file:

Editing Manifest: Android Studio provides a visual editor for editing the
AndroidManifest.xml file. Developers can use this editor to modify app
metadata, declare permissions, configure components, and specify intent
filters.

Validation and Errors: Android Studio performs validation of the manifest file
to ensure that it follows the correct structure and syntax. It highlights errors
and warnings in the manifest file, helping developers identify and fix issues
that may affect the app's functionality or compatibility.

21
Integration with Build Process: Android Studio integrates the manifest file
into the app's build process. When building the app, Android Studio merges
the manifest file with other configuration files and resources to generate the
final APK (Android Package) file that can be installed on Android devices.

22
23
Activity In Android App:
The mobile-app experience differs from its desktop counterpart in that a
user's interaction with the app doesn't always begin in the same place.
Instead, the user journey often begins non-deterministically. For instance, if
you open an email app from your home screen, you might see a list of emails.
By contrast, if you are using a social media app that then launches your email
app, you might go directly to the email app's screen for composing an email.

The Activity class is designed to facilitate this paradigm. When one app
invokes another, the calling app invokes an activity in the other app, rather
than the app as an atomic whole. In this way, the activity serves as the entry
point for an app's interaction with the user. You implement an activity as a
subclass of the Activity class.

An activity provides the window in which the app draws its UI. This window
typically fills the screen, but may be smaller than the screen and float on top
of other windows. Generally, one activity implements one screen in an app.
For instance, one of an app’s activities may implement a Preferences screen,
while another activity implements a Select Photo screen.

Most apps contain multiple screens, which means they comprise multiple
activities. Typically, one activity in an app is specified as the main activity,
which is the first screen to appear when the user launches the app. Each
activity can then start another activity in order to perform different actions.
For example, the main activity in a simple e-mail app may provide the screen
that shows an e-mail inbox. From there, the main activity might launch other
activities that provide screens for tasks like writing e-mails and opening
individual e-mails.

24
Although activities work together to form a cohesive user experience in an
app, each activity is only loosely bound to the other activities; there are usually
minimal dependencies among the activities in an app. In fact, activities often
start up activities belonging to other apps. For example, a browser app might
launch the Share activity of a social-media app.

To use activities in your app, you must register information about them in the
app’s manifest, and you must manage activity lifecycles appropriately. The
rest of this document introduces these subjects.

25
 Components Use In App:

1. Intro Screen or Splash Screen:

The splash screen is an essential component of the Home Workout App,
providing users with a visually appealing introduction to the app before
navigating to the main home screen. The splash screen incorporates the app's
logo and two text elements: "Home Workout App" and "#Fitness App."
interface.

A splash screen is mostly the first screen of the app when it is opened. It is a
constant screen which appears for a specific amount of time, generally shows
for the first time when the app is launched. The Splash screen is used to display
some basic introductory information such as the company logo, content, etc
just before the app loads completely.

Creating Splash screen in Android

Here we created two activities MainActivity showing the Splash Screen and
SecondActivity in order to switch from MainActivity to SecondActivity.
The main program is written in MainActivity, you can change activities as
per your need.

26
Implementation of Splash Screen :
Designing Layout:

27
28
Logic Implementation of Spalsh Screen (Source code):

package com.example.fitnessapp;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class SplashActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_intro);

Thread thread=new Thread(){

public void run(){
try{
sleep(2500);
}catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}finally{
Intent intent=new Intent(SplashActivity.this, HomeActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
}
}

29
 };thread.start();
}
}

30
 2. Home Screen:

The Home Screen Toolbar in the Home Workout App plays a crucial role in
providing users with easy access to essential functionalities and navigation
options. At the topmost section of the Toolbar, users will find the app's logo
and the text "Home Workout," symbolizing the app's focus on home-based
Workout.

Home screen widgets are broadcast receivers that provide interactive

components. They are primarily used on the Android home screen. They
typically display some kind of data and allow the user to perform actions with
them. For example, a widget can display a short summary of new emails and
if the user selects an email, it could start the email application with the selected
email.

Views are also called widgets in android so we’ll use the term “Home Screen
Widgets”

Home Screen Widgets doesn’t use original Views object but they uses a
special type of view called Remote Views.

Remote views have less functionality than the original Java Views.

Remote Views can support these types of views. i.e. AnalogClock, Button,
Chronometer, ImageButton, ImageView, ProgressBar and TextView.

31
Layout for Home Screen Widget is provided by a broadcast receiver, which
will inflate a view into Remote Views type.

For Showing Workout Categories Use ScrollView:

ScrollView In Android:

In Android, a ScrollView is a view group that is used to make vertically

scrollable views. A scroll view contains a single direct child only. In order
to place multiple views in the scroll view, one needs to make a view group(like
LinearLayout) as a direct child and then we can define many views inside it.
A ScrollView supports Vertical scrolling only, so in order to create a
horizontally scrollable view, HorizontalScrollView is used.

HorizontalScrollView :

ScrollView is a very essential part of Android App Development and can be

seen in almost every Application. One of the most popular areas where its
implementation can be seen is in the stories bar at the top of Instagram. In this
article, we will learn how we can implement a Horizontal ScrollView in
Android.

Horizontal ScrollView is a FrameLayout, used to provide the child View

element horizontal scrolling property. The ChildView in itself can be a layout
manager like the linear layout. The TextView class takes care of itsown
scrolling, But it can be placed inside a HorizontalScrollView to createmore
complex UI designs.

32
 Layout In Android:

Android Layout is used to define the user interface that holds the UI controls
or widgets that will appear on the screen of an android application or activity
screen. Generally, every application is a combination of View and
ViewGroup.

As we know, an android application contains a large number of activities and

we can say each activity is one page of the application. So, each activity
contains multiple user interface components and those components are the
instances of the View and ViewGroup. All the elements in a layout are built
using a hierarchy of View and ViewGroup objects.

A View is defined as the user interface which is used to create interactive UI

components such as TextView, ImageView, EditText, RadioButton, etc., and
is responsible for event handling and drawing. They are Generally Called
Widgets.

ConstraintLayout in Android:
ConstraintLayout is similar to that of other View Groups which we have seen
in Android such as RelativeLayout, LinearLayout, and many more. In this
article, we will take a look at using ConstraintLayout in Android.

Advantages of using ConstraintLayout in Android:

 ConstraintLayout provides you the ability to completely design your UI

with the drag and drop feature provided by the Android Studio design
editor.

33
 It helps to improve the UI performance over other layouts.

 With the help of ConstraintLayout, we can control the group of widgets

through a single line of code.

 With the help of ConstraintLayout, we can easily add animations to the

UI components which we used in our app.

Disadvantages of using ConstraintLayout :

 When we use the Constraint Layout in our app, the XML code generated
becomes a bit difficult to understand.

 In most of the cases, the result obtain will not be the same as we got to
see in the design editor.

 Sometimes we have to create a separate layout file for handling the UI

for the landscape mode.

How ConstraintLayout differs from Linear Layout:

 With the help of ConstraintLayout, we can position our UI components in

any sort of order whether it may be horizontal or vertical. But in the case
of Linear Layout, we can only arrange our UI components either in a
horizontal or in a vertical manner.

 Linear Layout provides usability with which we can equally divide all
the UI components in a horizontal or vertical manner using weight sum
but in Constraint Layout, we have to arrange this UI component
manually.

34
 In Linear Layout the UI which is actually seen in the Design editor of
Android Studio will be the same as that we will get to see in the app,
butin the case of Constraint layout if the UI component is not Constrainedthen the UI will not look
the same as that of in design editor.

How ConstraintLayout differs from RelativeLayout:

 In Constraint Layout, we have to add constraints to the view on all four

sides whereas in Relative Layout we can simply align our UI component
relative to its ID using the ids of UI components.

 In Relative Layout, the UI which is actually seen in the Design editor of

Android Studio will be the same as that we will get to see in the app, but
in the case of Constraint layout if the UI component is not Constrained
then the UI will not look same as that of in design editor.

How Constraint Layout differs from Grid Layout:

 In Grid Layout the UI components are only arranged in Grid Manner and
we cannot arrange the UI components according to requirement, whereas
in Constraint Layout we can align UI components according to the
requirement.

 In Grid Layout, the UI which is actually seen in the Design editor of

Android Studio will be the same as that we will get to see in the app, but
in the case of Constraint layout if the UI component is not Constrained
then the UI will not look same as that of in design editor.

35
Use Gif to show the workout:

In modern Android app development, incorporating animations is crucial for

enhancing user experience and engagement. One popular method for creating
animations is by using GIFs (Graphics Interchange Format). This report delves
into the process of using GIFs as animations in Android apps, discussing their
benefits, implementation steps, and best practices.

Benefits of Using GIFs as Animations:

Ease of Use: GIFs are easy to integrate into Android apps as they are
essentially image files.

Compactness: GIFs are usually smaller in size compared to videos, making

them ideal for mobile apps where optimizing resources is essential.

Compatibility: GIFs are supported across various platforms and browsers,

ensuring a consistent user experience.

Engagement: Animated content tends to capture users' attention more

effectively, leading to increased engagement and retention rates.

36
Implementation of GIF:

Add the GIF to Your Project:

Place the GIF file in the res/raw directory of your Android project.
Ensure the GIF is optimized for size and quality to improve app performance.

37
Display the GIF:

In your XML layout file, add an ImageView element to display the GIF.
Set the src attribute of the ImageView to point to the GIF file in your
resources.

If you want the GIF to animate automatically, you can use libraries like Glide
or Picasso to load and display the GIF in your ImageView.
Alternatively, you can use the built-in AnimationDrawable class to control
the animation programmatically.

Integrating GIFs as animations in Android apps offers numerous benefits in

terms of user engagement, compactness, and compatibility. By following best
practices and optimizing GIFs for performance, developers can create visually
appealing and interactive app experiences. Incorporating GIFs strategically
can significantly enhance the overall user experience and contribute to the
success of Android applications.

Dependency Use for Gif:

“implementation 'pl.droidsonroids.gif:android-gif-drawable:1.2.23”

The pl.droidsonroids.gif.GifImageView dependency is a useful library for

Android developers that simplifies the process of displaying GIF images in an
ImageView. This library provides enhanced functionality and performance

38
 optimizations specifically tailored for handling GIFs in Android apps. Here's
an overview of how to use the GifImageView dependency in your Android
project:

Add Dependency to Your Project:

First, you need to add the GifImageView dependency to your project. You
can do this by adding the following line to your app-level build.gradle file:

1. After adding the dependency, sync your project to ensure that the library is
downloaded and included in your project.

2. Use GifImageView in XML Layout: In your XML layout file (e.g.,

activity_main.xml ), you can use the GifImageView instead of the regular
ImageView to display GIF images:

// Implementation of Gif Dependency:

<pl.droidsonroids.gif.GifImageView
android:id="@+id/gifImageView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@drawable/your_gif_file_name" />

Replace your_gif_file_name with the actual name of your GIF file without
the extension. The GifImageView will handle the GIF animation

39
automatically.

Load GIF Programmatically: In your Java or Kotlin code, you can load the
GIF into the GifImageView using the setImageResource method:

// Logic Implementation of GifImageView:

import pl.droidsonroids.gif.GifImageView;

// Inside onCreate or onViewCreated method

GifImageView gifImageView = findViewById(R.id.gifImageView);

gifImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.your_gif_file_name);

The GifImageView will handle the animation and display the GIF image
accordingly.

Run Your App: After adding the GifImageView dependency, loading the
GIF, and configuring the layout, run your app on an emulator or device to see
the GIF animation displayed using the GifImageView .

Using the pl.droidsonroids.gif.GifImageView dependency simplifies the

process of working with GIFs in Android apps, providing optimized
performance and seamless animation handling.

Integrating GIFs as animations in Android apps offers numerous benefits in

terms of user engagement, compactness, and compatibility. By following best
practices and optimizing GIFs for performance, developers can create
visually appealing and interactive app experiences. Incorporating GIFs
40
strategically can significantly enhance the overall user experience and

4.1 TESTING

Video Functionality Test:

 Ensure that the video player is working correctly.

 Test playback functionality by starting, pausing, and
resuming the video.
 Verify that the volume control and mute options work as
expected.
 Check for any buffering issues or delays in video loading.
Animation Test:
 Confirm that animations are displaying properly on the
webpage.
 Test animations for smoothness and fluidity of movement.
 Check that animations are responsive to user interactions if
applicable.
 Verify that animations do not cause any lag or performance
issues on the webpage.

74
User Interface Testing:

● Verify that the user interface elements (buttons, text fields,

Images and Gif etc.) are properly displayed and functional on
different Android OS devices and screen sizes.
● Check for consistency in design elements and layout across
different screens.
● Ensure that the UI is intuitive and easy to navigate.

75
 CHAPTER 5

UI Layouts:

To provide guidance on UI layout for your app, I would need more

information about the app's purpose, target audience, and features.
Additionally, it would be helpful to know which platform (Android )
you're developing for and any specific design preferences you have.

However, in general, a good UI layout should focus on clarity,

consistency, and ease of use. Here are some common UI layout
components you might consider incorporating:

Toolbar: Contains common actions or options relevant to the current

screen.

Content Area: Displays the main content of the app, such as text,
images, or interactive elements.

Responsive Design: Ensures that the layout adapts gracefully to

different screen sizes and orientations.

Using a Button: As a LinearLayout in Android Studio involves nesting

other UI elements within the Button's layout. This technique allows for
more complex and customized button layouts compared to a standard
Button.

LIMITATION

Limited User Personalization

1. Definition of Personalization

Personalization in apps refers to creating tailored experiences for users based on their
preferences, history, and behavior. This can include customized content,
recommendations, and user interfaces that adapt to individual needs.

2. Role of User Authentication

User authentication is the process of verifying the identity of a user through methods
like login credentials or biometrics. Authentication allows the app to identify specific
users, enabling it to store and retrieve personalized data.

3. Implications of No Authentication

Without authentication, the app cannot associate data or preferences with individual
users. All interactions remain anonymous, which limits the app’s ability to offer a
personalized experience. Here are some specific limitations:

a. Saving User Preferences

 Apps often allow users to configure settings (e.g., theme, language, notification
preferences).
 Without authentication, these preferences are stored locally (e.g., on the device) rather
than being tied to a specific account.
 If the user switches devices or clears their app data, all preferences are lost.

86
b. Tracking Workout Progress Across Devices
 Fitness or health apps track metrics like workout history, calories burned, and goals
achieved.
 Without authentication, this data is stored only on the device where it was recorded.
 Users cannot sync progress across multiple devices, limiting convenience.

c. Providing Tailored Recommendations

 Recommendations rely on analyzing user activity (e.g., favorite workouts, frequently
visited sections).
 Without identifying users, apps cannot build a history to offer relevant suggestions.
 Recommendations, if any, will be generic and less engaging.

4. Security and Privacy Benefits Without Authentication

While personalization is limited, avoiding user authentication can offer some advantages:

 Reduces the risk of data breaches or misuse since sensitive data isn’t stored.
 Simplifies compliance with privacy laws (e.g., GDPR, CCPA) by minimizing data
collection.

5. Examples of Authentication’s Impact

 Streaming Services (e.g., Netflix): Personalized movie recommendations based on
viewing history.
 E-commerce (e.g., Amazon): Suggested products based on purchase history.
 Fitness Apps (e.g., Strava): Seamless workout tracking and community interaction
across devices.

6. Balancing Personalization and Simplicity

 For apps that do not require strong personalization, limited functionality might
suffice.
 Apps can also offer optional user accounts to cater to both casual users and those
seeking tailored experiences.

87
No Multi-User Support: Users won't be able to create individual
accounts or profiles within the app, limiting its usability for households
or multiple users sharing the same device.

Data Storage: You'll need to store user data locally on the device or use
alternative cloud storage solutions if you want to offer features like
progress tracking or saving custom workouts.

Accessibility: Since there are no user accounts, users won't have access
to their data across multiple devices or platforms. This limits the
accessibility and convenience of using the app across different devices.
