think free ...think about a problem as your own and realize you have only one weapon and that is coding to combat it.....never take it too seriously.....think like a child....decide that you don't need to follow the crowd in order to solve a problem and solve it in an unconventional way.....you can just sit still and imagine small conventional things in an unconventional way....there are many experts to suggest where u can get ideas and use them but why not create a mind which is a factory of ideas so that one day you can provide ideas to other people?
we were all creative when we were younger but time corrupts our brain and we realize that it is better to be " practical" and finally end up in a job which we don't like......creativity only comes when we feel what we are doing and you have the time to stop and stare at the beautiful natural phenomena that happens around you. Feel the colours of the rainbows, the smell of the wet soil and wonder like a child why we don't have 1 eye(instead of two😂). Feel the desperation and the helplessness when(for eg.) someone you love becomes blind and comes to you for help. You will surely try desperately to build something which might help...that's how the intensity of the desperation should be. Creativity is driven by the happiness you gain and the satisfaction you feel when you make something and fall in love with your own creations.

Don't think about the program, but think about what you have passion for. Do you like football? Make a football app! Do you like to sing, make a karaoke app 🎤 . Don't force it, just flow with it. I like Star Wars, so I made a Star Wars code 😃

From personal experience, I can tell that creative ideas strike suddenly when I don't expect, so I quickly write down them because I can simply forget about them. Just work hard and smart so good things (including ideas) will come.

Life is creative enough , look around and try to see and find solutions for problems. Real life is always requires new needs for the demands of people.People love to be lazy; so making life easier for them will help you to find what to code. Ah and also be simple as like as calculator.

Try to identify problems around you or check with you friends/ neighbors if they are facing any problems
Analyze if the problem can be resolved by App/technology
Write down problem and probable solution
bounce the solution with the people who are facing the problem
if the app is going to solve the problem
a) writing down the detail requirements
b) create wire frame
c) design the database
d) identify the technology
e) write psuedocode
f) write test cases
g) do coding
h) Test
I) release for users testing
j) release the app to market
writing code is just 20% of the solution. 80% of the solution is requirements gathering, design and testing.
you don't have to be creative to write code, you have to think logically , how to solve the problem.
Keep your eyes and ears open, you will find plenty problems to be solved
example : reminder App to take and refill medicines for old people
tracking kids using GPS, etc etc
pls let me know your thoughts

Creativity will come as we are practicing our ability. One of the way you can try is to find or googling some code, run the code, see the result. Try to modification the code, edit the code with your own way, but with as same result as original code. if you can do it, next try to add some feature to it. With those hard work, creativity will come to your head..
More learn, more practice, you will find a great idea..

Then you will have an idea,and creativity.And maybe sometime,your business ,or something that will be commercially viable in the long run✌✌✌✌✌😉

Of course like Bjarte said, you don't need think about the program, if you have a passion or a hobby, work in make it better, add functions, utilities that you want. For example, I like the crowdsourcing so I make js code to add new updates in sites like Crowdflower, RainforestQa, etc...

Talking from experience, some have passion for creativity when they see what others do but they don't even know where to start from...In my own opinion, I would say study and whatever you are studying, make sure its from the very basics...
On the accomplishment of the above, you just see ideas naturally coming, and as they come you without stress manipulate them.out.
