Android App Help

I have built my own android app to view my school timetable but I have a major problem in the fact the buttons are not working. Here is the link to the project on GitHub. https://github.com/Ottermad/YourTimetable. So if anyone has some time please could they have a look and see if you can suggest how I can solve the problem.

I branched off of your repo and found your problem. If you check my commits you should see the changes. Basically, you had two @+id/button1 and two @+id/button2. Upon further investigation, it looks like you copy and pasted your code twice in the same layout. So you actually had two of everything. Silly mistake, but it happens to the best of us. Just as a note, please try to have meaningful names for your layout items and activities. Something like @+id/getTimetableButton would be better practice. Same thing goes with your activities. Though I'm sure you were planning on re-factoring these things later :smile: Keep coding!
