The user can also tap the “Change Background Color” button to change the background color of the app, or the “Change Text Color” button to change the text color on the screen.

Other Information

This app took about 3 hours to develop. I watched Youtube Videos to figure out how to connect code to the buttons and text on the screen. I used a function from Stack Overflow for producing a random color for the text and background color upon the user pressing those respective functions.
