The use of technology, especially mobile phone, has grown in almost every aspect of human life, including education. Mobile phones as one of technology based tools are believed can be used in teaching English to increase students' interest and motivation. This research was conducted to design a simple android-based learning media in teaching short functional text.

In addition, this study also tried to analyze the effectiveness of English learning using Android-based mobile learning media. This study employed a research and development method, which taken in nine steps: potential and problems, data collection, product design, design validation by experts, product testing, product revision I, use trial, product revision II, and final product. The research instruments were questionnaires and tests. The data analysis were explained through descriptive statistics and independent sample T-test. The subjects in this study were the eighth- grade students at SMP N 4 Purwodadi. The results of this study had three findings. Firstly, the validation of media and material experts was a relevant interpretation of a valid product and android-based mobile learning media product was feasible to use. Secondly, the average pre- test and post-test results showed a high significance, this means that the android-based mobile learning media was very effective to be used as a learning medium in the learning process.

Thirdly, the students' perception results obtained in a good category, with 75.5% of them agreeing to use Android-based mobile learning media in the learning process. In conclusion, android-based mobile learning media can help students to comprehend short functional text of greeting card.
