When working with apps, the language that you choose to use depends on which operating system you want it to run on. For IOS devices, Swift would most likely be your best option. Swift is a popular choice for IOS development and works alongside XCode to create apps. I would recommend checking out the Sololearn course for Swift as it covers a lot on app development. The only problem with choosing XCode and Swift is that you have to have some sort of MacBook to be able to run it, as no other computers are able to download it. For Android systems, Android Studio is a very good tool for creating apps. It is basically the equivalent to XCode but for absolutely any device that runs Android (including TVs, watches, etc.). The languages it uses are Java, Kotlin, C++, and XML, but Java and Kotlin are the main ones for coding (XML is more for the design of the app, and using either XML or C++ is optional). Java had been, and is still, a very good choice for app development as any of its code can be easily transferred across all devices without the need of creating a new code. I would recommend checking out the Sololearn course for it, but learning how it is used with Android Studio would have to be done somewhere else. Kotlin is a newer language that is very similar to Java, but it has become a much more popular option recently for Android Studio (the new Android version was even developed with it). Currently, Sololearn doesn't have a course ready for it but maybe in the future it will come to light. Hope this helped! d:
