[Q] I am looking for Facebook app development companies - General Questions and Answers

I am looking for Facebook app development companies that can help me create a new application for my business. I don’t know really know much about the process, but I know exactly what my needs are and I really need help realizing them. Does anyone know of any companies that can help? Thanks!

Facebook app developers are a dime a dozen
Facebook app developers are a dime a dozen, that’s for sure, but their skills and experience vary, so it is essential companies examine prospective developers’ portfolios and experience before hiring. Application development is a very lengthy and involved process that cannot be accomplished by novice developers – at least not in the time companies would want. A company like ConvoSpark has extensive experience in the app development field and it has the expertise to create a wide variety of applications that can be customized per the client’s requirements. From my experience, they are very understanding and will help to explain certain steps during the process. Additionally, they will continue to help with the application after its launch to ensure the app works well.

Facebook apps
You can try this company : Optigra.org. For me they were cool.

[Q] Noob needs help to create event calendar app

Hi all,
I'm a noob app developer trying to do it for the first time. I'm trying to create an event calendar app for company's internal purposes. So that everyone in the company (which uses a lot of android phones) can be updated on company events that are coming up.
My approach is to create a database with MySQL for events input, and to use PHP to connect the database which is in a server and to push it to the android devices that are used in the office as that's how I found it in a tutorial from HelloAndroid.
My questions are:
1. is this the best approach to create such app?
2. Can I use Android's default calendar to input these events? if not is there some kind of calendar template that I can use to display the information to the users.
Probably will have more questions as I progress, but please help if anyone is more experienced in these matters than I am.
Thank you very much, and really appreciate the inputs that I'm gonna get
A simple solution would be to use Google Calendar.
By using GC you can add/edit events either from a PC (work or home) or your Mobile anywhere in the World.
All that is required is for someone to first set up the calendar on Google and push it out to all those who you want to see it.
This way you are not isolating anyone who does not have an Android Phone.
that's a really good point. Especially in a closed environment like an office. I didn't think of that before. THank you very much.
However, if let's say I want to try to build an app for that for public use, not just confined to limited numbers of people in a company.
Would that be the best approach or if there's any better way to approach it. I may decide to build the app after all just to learn and gain experience in app development.
thanks again for the feedback, really appreciate it.
I can't really give you advice on developing an App sorry.
All I can say is the method I mention is the one which I use to keep all my Operational Team (Surgeons/Doctors/Nurses/Admin/etc) updated and advised.
There's nothing short in you developing your own Calendar App but you would have to ensure it would be available to all and that includes anyone anywhere regardless of the fact they are at work, home, holiday, with Android or not, have a Phone, PC, Mac, etc... etc...
For that there's already a stable tool by the name of Google Calendar.
If you do develop one I'd still be interested in seeing what ideas you could bring into practice that would have a benefit over GC.
I understand your point of view, and actually you got me thinking, maybe if I really want to do the apps, I can create an app that calls the Gcalendar events, and display it from the app. I can find out the API to do that, and that would be much simpler.
Thank you again for your input, really appreciate i

No problem.... I wish you well on your venture.
Do please let us all know how you get on.. You never know, if it becomes that good I may even use it myself over the stock calendar App or any of the other's that already link to GC.

[Q] Another calorie counter app?

Hello to all on this forum.
I have a Flash application that I want to develop into an Android app. I would not require some of the bells and whistles that are currently on the application, but a simple sub-set of how it works now. The flash application can be found here:
FastFood.com/nutrition/
(Hope this URL is allowed here as it will help people understand what I want to do.)
I have all the source files and programming for this and hoped they would be of some help in developing the Android app. But of course, I have no idea if this is any help at all to whoever develops the app for me.
Anyway, before trying to source a developer to do this for me, I thought I should ask a few questions to see if this is even something practical. So I hope some of you can give me some guidance regarding my questions.
1) Are most applications stand alone in the mobile phone, or is it common for some of these apps to access the network to get the necessary data required to operate? My purpose requires a database that is currently 14 megs, and must be accessible to the app, although only small portions of it are needed at any one time.
2) Are there varying systems within the Android family, or versions of the operating system that need to be accounted for?
3) Are there good reasons to develop for both Android and iPhone together? I mean from a cost to develop point of view? Or would it likely be just as effective to develop for Android, then move on to iPhone, or others, as is appropriate?
4) I am guessing that if you have looked at the flash version of our Calorie Counter, you could probably give an educated guess as to what it might cost to replicate a scaled down version for Android. So please, take a stab at it if you can.
Thanks

[Q] Making an Augmented Reality Android App

Hello, This is my first post on XDA and I am sorry if this is the wrong forum for posting this question.
I am a computer engineering student and I willing to make an augmented reality browser for android as a graduation project(something like Layar and Wikitude); however, I want to make it from scratch(without using any Augmented Reality API like the ones Layar provide), I want the application to be smart and to be able to detect stuff through image recognition and back it up with locations provided through GPS and I am willing to use Google Maps API for fetching Points of interest and other APIs for different uses...
I have very basic android programming experience and average java programming experience. I am going to work in a group of two and I have a 10 month period to make the app.
The question I hope any of XDA developers would help me answer is :
Can it be done or do I have to look for another graduation project? If yes, what materials(books, tutorials,...) should I start searching for if I want to make this project better?
I appreciate any help regarding this question...
Sorry for my bad English...
Sounds good.
Yes, I do think it is possible. And by the way, great Idea for a project. I know someone in my university that did something similar. And seeing as google provides image search, you could borrow google's service for that image thing you mentioned.
Augmented reality is becoming a massive business and it will be interesting to see what you come up with.
Sorry if this isn't what you wanted but this is all my experience in augmented stuff combined to answer your question. But nothing is impossible. As a heads up This project may be a lot of work.
What computer languages do you know?

Thank you so much for your assistance. I have an average knowledge in Java and C languages.If it is not much trouble, can you ask the person who did it in your university about the best resources to start with in order to achieve a good application.
Also, Thanks a lot for the great tip about using Google image search.
Will do when he gets back from China . Haven't seen him for nearly a year. Apparently he is doing some sort of martial arts course.
You finished the work or you chose other subject for the degree project?

[Q] Developing: Windows, Mac, Linux, & Other Questions

Hello all! I'm new to this wonderful forum and community so please spare me if I've done, or said anything stupid. :crying:
I am interesting in developing applications for Android. I do understand that developing apps for any device/software is a challenging task. Especially with Android (I think) since it's such a diverse amount of devices, screen resolutions, capabilities, etc. What I'm hoping to do is to build a somewhat simple app, targeted at business owners, or folks who sell merchandise, and so on. It's supposed to have tabs set up for certain folks/companies. I'll spare the details about the app I want to make. Bottom line is, I want to start off with that 'simple' app and move on to a game for my second app. I know that I won't be a huge hit or any of the sort. But before I begin to develop, I have some questions that I hope can be answered here.
Here are my questions, please be patient with me, and to all mods/admins, I'm sorry if I've violated any rules by posting this up. I couldn't find any decent answers that'll help me out.
1. What Operating System is considered to be "better" for developing Android apps, and why?
2. How do I go on testing my app, do I use my own phone, or are there any great emulators out there that can emulate/simulate a real phone very well?
3. Where would you recommend me, a complete noob, on developing? I know I can look this up on my own, so I don't mind if this question isn't answered. I just want to find some guides that actually explain why things were done, what it's supposed to teach and so on.
4. This question is the one that worries me the most, and I understand it might start some debate () so please, be respectful. :laugh: I'm not a legal US resident, citizen, or any of the sort. I'm currently seeing a lawyer to apply for Deferred Action. But I'm worried that it might be illegal for me to publish apps on the Google Play store. /: Does anybody know if it's it legal for a 16 year old, illegal immigrant (USA) to publish apps on the app store? ​
Sorry guys, I really want to know. >.< So... BUMP ​

[Q] IOS development HELP

hello to you all.
I have a few questions regarding the development of ios app. I have no knowledge of this, I do know how I want the final product.
Now I know not all that I ask is probably legal, but this is of course only question
Is it possible to combine several different apps available in the appstore for a common app
app should in theory not be sold, but only serves to make my life easier. so must the app not going to lie down in the app store
Should the device (iPad) jailbreakes for this to be done?
the developer must be present in order to be able to program, or it can be done far away from me. We're talking about apps that are made for home automation.
can anyone help with a bit her tongue in my thoughts?
it would be super cool if there was someone who had the time and energy to look at my plans and see if it was realistic?

Hi Peter,
Well your idea is not quite clear to me. From whatever little I understood from your post is that you want a home automation app that is a mixture of many different apps available in the app store. As you clearly know that duplicating app designs without proper permissions is a crime. There are many home automation apps already available in the market. Having said that, if you still want your app to be custom-made to suit your needs, I can help you. I am an iOS developer new york and have built quite a few home automation apps. We can make a custom app suited for your needs. If you can elaborate your requirements, it would be possible to chalk out a plan and see whether your plans are realistic or not.
