Why not use Google?

Kodular can not run apps in the background. That is something App Inventor worked on but has paused for the time being.

So you can’t create service in any appinventor based platform

No builder around has this capability at the moment.

There is only a testserver available at the moment which hasn’t been updated in a long time.

Oh! ,
I used Google too but it couldn’t find the results so I thought to ask it to the developers because they would now it better and can even explain or suggest alternates.
Anyways thanjs for your beautiful aansere, as mentioned above “Every answere is appreciated”

Now this is getting interesting. Was submitted to Github. Can anyone of the developers shine a light on this. Is this going to make running in the background a bit closer?

This PR (pull request) means not background services.
It is to execute blocks in a asynchron way.
Means you can use it as example to load many images asynchron (without freezing the screen).

So here’s what you’re saying…

It’s misleading to human humanity?

I think Pull Request is more appropriate for that. :sweat_smile:

I mean, the block run in background seems to be misleading if it can’t actually do what it means, besides for loading things async.
