An Android app which shows the list of Most Popular and Top Rated movies. This project is under Udacity Android Nanodegree Program.
- Upon launch, present the user with an grid arrangement of movie posters.
- Allow your user to change sort order via a setting:
- The sort order can be by most popular, or by top rated
- Allow the user to tap on a movie poster and transition to a details screen with additional information such as:
- original title
- movie poster image thumbnail
- A plot synopsis (called overview in the api)
- user rating (called vote_average in the api)
- release date
- Allow users to view and play trailers ( either in the youtube app or a web browser).
- Allow users to read reviews of a selected movie.
- Allow users to mark a movie as a favorite in the details view by tapping a button(star). This is for a local movies collection that you will maintain and does not require an API request*.
- Modify the existing sorting criteria for the main view to include an additional pivot to show their favorites collection.
- Optimize your app experience for tablet.
