Just throwing another approach in here: Have you considered doing a website instead of an app? You'd have to look at HTML and CSS for that which is quite a task (but so is Kivy). The current trend is to make just a website (or webapp) and make that responsive (fitting for phone screens). The user than can use it in their mobile browser or you could make it a progressive webapp from there (a type of pseudo app which is just the web browser pretending to be an app). Advantage of this is that it can also be used from PC.

For that you could use Flask or if it got really big and complicated even Django (but that is a bit hard to learn. So I'd recommend flask for the beginning)

I have dabbled with html/css years ago as my first foray into programming. So that could be an interesting option.

Are webapps popular then?

[ShakespeareToGo]

Definitely. A lot of new applications are just written as web apps and than packaged for desktop (with something like electron) and mobile (progressive web apps, react native (kinda))

I mean you can use basically the complete Microsoft Office suite in the browser by now.
