No, this is not going to happen. Find someone you can trust and that will compliment you in areas where you lack knowledge and experience. In other words, find a co-founder that will handle all tech stuff. Offer him equity instead of money. Find someone that will be passionate about the idea as much as you are.

Ask your friends and acquaintances for recommendations. Go to a tech/business meetup and meet people.

This is not going to be a google search "how to build an app". Sorry.

Thank you for bold feedback. I heard about tools that help you build apps even if you don't have technical skills. They are supposed to help at least to get something out there. But I was wondering what they are and if anybody tried them.

Just to clarify, I wasn't trying to stop you from doing your app or starting your own business or what is your trying to achieve. I respect and admire that.

I think that this is not the right strategy to apply.

You’d get much better feedback if you came up with a list of such apps and asked for user experiences. Now you just sound lazy, asking others to do the work for you.
