I would've done using Kodular. Few years ago I was also looking for a simple solution and googled this video about the connection between any android app and ESP8266. Very informative, give it a shot.

Kodular is a Mit App Inventor clone. I would stick to Mit's App Inventor as there is a lot going on in that part of the world. Many clones have seized to exist.
A more difficult to learn but very good alternative is B4X (Basic for X where X being Android, IOS and PC) which can be found here: https://www.b4x.com/

For what its worth, I faced the same challenge but having no Android skills (and my wife having iPhone) led me to a different solution. I created a bridge between ESP Rainmaker and my ESP8266's via MQTT. There's a video here: https://youtu.be/Ta9dwDD9GyA and code here: https://github.com/JohnMacrae/Rainmaker-MQTT-Bridge
