This research is a research and development (Research & Development) through four development procedures in the form of preliminary studies, program design, program development, and dissemination. The results of the preliminary studies showed that respondents still felt difficult in developing Android-based learning media. Based on these problems, a learning media is then designed that can accommodate learning needs through the use of technology. Then the design was validated by experts to be tested. Based on the results of expert validation, an average of 89.33% was obtained from the validators. It was an indication that the developed media is categorized as very good category. Application user responses also showed that 15% positive and 85% very positive. Meanwhile, student learning outcomes show that through learning media Star Mobile Apps can improve learning outcomes with an average N Gain of 0.701.
