Swipe Introduction Splash Screen for First Time Users - Android

Question

I want to implement a swipe introduction screen in my Android application that is displayed only when the app is opened for the first time.

This is the swipe tutorial screen shown for the first time when one opens the app SkillPages.

Can anybody suggest libraries that can help me achieve such behaviour.

I will be using Android Studio

[AppIntro](https://github.com/PaoloRotolo/AppIntro) is one - there are quite a few (**Edit:** If it's the "only run once" behaviour you're after, not the actual tutorial screen, then `SharedPreferences` is indeed the way to go) — PPartisan, Feb 12 '16 at 10:26
take one boolean and make it true for the first time and save it in sharedPreferences.. check for this every time — Surabhi Singh, Feb 12 '16 at 10:28
I found [this](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21941314/swipe-a-splash-screen-to-get-to-a-login-screen-android-application#answer-21941715) answer helpful to solve similar problem. Hope this helps. — Keerthana Nerella, Feb 12 '16 at 10:47

Store Boolean value using SharedPreferences to check if it is for the first time app started or not.
Check for the value once app is open. for first time value will be false.
Create ViewPager and customize your views with images and show in Activity.
Once this is shown, set true to the shared preference value.
Each time app opens check for this value, it will return false.

Check these links SharedPreference Reference and ViewPager Reference
