Building a Tutorial/Giving a hint for my Android app

I am building an android app and I want the app to show up some tutorial dialogs or speech balloons at first use.

I decided to use the Preferences and store a boolean for each Activity. When it is first shown the balloon shoul开发者_JAVA百科d popup. But I have no clue how to draw a balloon or make an InApp-Tutorial.

Thank you and best regards, Till

You can use toasts. and use the shared preferences to check wether or not the users should be seeing the tutorial. Heres a link to the dev.android page

Theyre just little boxes that pop up for a certain time.

just have them pop up on certain events (if its a game), or let them pop up one after the other. EASY!!! hope this helps!
