How do i read the user’s text input?

For example, i have kept a dialogue box that asks for the user’s name.

And below it i have added a label that i want it to display “Hello User’s Name”

How do i do that?

Thank you

Welcome. I can see by your question you are looking for the basic information.

You can learn a lot via these links (copied and pasted from @Taifun)

A very good way to learn App Inventor or Kodular is to read the free Inventor’s Manual here in the AI2 free online eBook App Inventor 2 Book: Create Your Own Android Apps … the links are at the bottom of the Web page. The book ‘teaches’ users how to program with AI2 blocks.
There is a free programming course here Course In A Box and the aia files for the projects in the book are here: App Inventor 2 Book: Create Your Own Android Apps
How to do a lot of basic things with App Inventor are described here: How do you...? .

Also do the tutorials Tutorials for MIT App Inventor to learn the basics of App Inventor, then try something and follow the Top 5 Tips: How to learn App Inventor

This is the simplest answer to your question.
