Canvas Apps: App vs Screen

 In Power Apps canvas apps, there are two main concepts: "app" and "screen." Here's a breakdown of the difference between the two:

 

App:

- The "app" represents the entire application that you build using Power Apps. It serves as a container for all the components of your canvas app, including screens, controls, data sources, and logic.

- The app defines the overall structure and environment of your canvas app.

- You can set app-level properties, such as the app's name, icon, and version number.

- The app can have multiple screens that users can navigate between.

 

Screen:

- A "screen" represents a distinct interface or view within your canvas app. It is a specific page or section of the app that users interact with.

- Each screen typically focuses on a specific task or functionality within the app.

- You can design screens using various controls, layout elements, and styling options to create the desired visual appearance and user experience.

- Screens allow you to organize and present information to users in a structured manner.

- Users can navigate between screens within the app using buttons, links, or other navigation controls.
