Will the self destructing app teach me how to upload multiple images and display them in a grid?

Will the self destructing app teach me how to upload multiple images and display them in a grid? I want the user to upload images using their photos on their phones and display it with a title.

Hey John!

Yes, you'll learn about how you can use images and display them in a GridView. The bit you won't learn is how to allow the user to upload images using their photos on their phones and display it with a title.

The GridView on the tutorial video uses Gravatar images but, you could use Parse instead to allow the user to upload images to Parse and then use them images on the GridView (This isn't part of the tutorial but, should be pretty easy to work out after learning how to send images to Parse as a message).

The harder bit would be to put a title on the image. Perhaps there are some API's available that would allow you to do this or, you could create an Intent for an Image-editing application?

It's up to you how you want to go about it but, here are some ideas. Hope it helps! :)
