Coding tooltips can be repetitive and boring or you can provide tips that popup without writing code using the Pointzi SDK. It will take about 15minutes.

Step 1: Get an account on the Pointzi Dashboard, create an App and note your app_key, you'll need it below.

Step 2: Include Pointzi repositories in your top level build.gradle for all projects.

allprojects {
    ...
    repositories {
        ...
        maven {
            url "http://pkg.streethawk.com/artifactory/pointzi"
        }
        maven {
            url "http://pkg.streethawk.com/artifactory/streethawk"
        }
        ...
    }
    ...
}

Step 3:
Include Pointzi dependencies in your module level build.gradle.

dependencies {
    ...
    compile "com.streethawk:core:latest.release"
    compile "com.streethawk:pointzi:latest.release"
    ...
}

Step 4: Add the following code in your application's launcher activity

..
import com.streethawk.library.pointzi.Pointzi;
...

Pointzi.INSTANCE.init(getApplication(),  "<Your app_key from Pointzi Dashboard>");

Step 5: Get your App running, go back to the dashboard and follow the wizard to create your tips and view on your phone.
