Dear all,
I would like to introduce you to a free, open source project that has just recently been published on the Market and reached the 1.0 milestone.
Android Analyzer project aims at developing an Android application that analyzes and collects hardware and software capabilities of devices based on the Android OS. Our ultimate goal is to create a comprehensive, state-of-the-art repository of data for a wide range of devices - from mobile phones, to tablets, STBs, smarthome panels, and anything else that runs Android. The database will support the developer community in addressing fragmentation problems of the Android platform. You can access the source code, trackers and debug releases on:
code.google.com/p/android-analyzer/
Android Analyzer is made freely available on the Android Market, so that both developers and consumer can have an easy access:
market://details?id=org.androidanalyzer
The data is reported to and available on the AndroidFragmentation.com site (Database tab). We also have a sandbox backed that can be used during development.
Report statistics as of 01-Nov-2010:
Reports: 187
OEMs: 30
Models: 53
Operators: 56
We are very much interested in your feedback and always looking for volunteers to help us develop more plugins and extend the level of detected capabilities!
Kind regards,
Sinisha Djukic

Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place
I hope they can get a good team behind this. I always use Raptr, and complain about it when they make FaceBook post in their comments.
Apparently 2 years is not enough for an Android app to build.
Which Cross Platform mobile app development tools should i choose for mobile app development
Try Unity 3D. It offers much possibilities and you can find much ressources.
Super Wilmer
We've been looking at porting to libGDX which is java based, and can port to iOS and HTML5, since our game Super Wilmer is java based makes the most sense. But I've also been reviewing unity, C# scripting, very visual comes with a large bag of goodies. We are a small 2 man Indie team, that build games outside of our full time jobs, so are looking to cut down our development time, so perhaps we start looking at this Unity.
I think Corona also crossbuilds.
Anyone use coco2dx ??

I use Corona for a year now, and its quite good. Its main for game development, but i created some nice apps with it.

I use cocos2d-x It is quite good if you're not afraid of C++ and want to make a really cross-platform game.
Cocos2d is great use it.
I use cocos2d-x it is awesome and with a bit of searching on their site you find an awesome documemtation

Just say thanks i learned a lot
As a user of unity since version 4.1.2, I can definitely recomend you this engine. Among other great features, cross platform development is the killer one - if you aim to be on many platforms (and I'm sure, sooner or later you'll want to), you can save huge amount of time with it.
Cross Platform mobile app development tools
Here are a few to consider:
Codename One - This is a great option if you’re a Java programmer and need native performance. Use almost any IDE you want.
Kony Mobility Platform - claims that is “supports the entire application software development lifecycle (SDLC) and enables organizations to go from idea to omni-channel app in just a few.” Has pre-built apps that will really help you get started but documentation might be a problem.
Sencha touch - is a great choice if you need more than 50 built-in, high-performance UI widgets like lists, carousels, forms, menus, toolbars etc.
These are just three option out of many, so definitely continue to do your research and see which is best suited to your particular needs and project.
Xamarin
You should use Xamarin for your mobile application development project.
Hi Guys,
In order to work on cross-platform application efficiently, there are some tools used and I will be mentioning top tools here that can work on multiple platforms like Windows, iOS, and Android:
• Xamarin
• Titanium
• Apache Cordova
• Respond Native
• Ionic
It is a very difficult task to select the best tools for our mobile apps because all tools have different features with pros & cons. Select best cross-platform tools according to your requirement. For more information about Cross-platform tools, you can visit us website Frugalnova.com
Thanks & Regards

It really depends on what you want to do but you can also consider Qt if you're good at C++.
It's a great framework with lots of features and generates codes for android, ios, windows, mac os and linux.
I vote for Xamarin Forms. If you know C# it's best.

Suitable tools for your app
It is very hard question for mobile app developers to reply. But As a mobile app developer and as per my personal work experience, I suggest you to use Xamarin and NativeScript tools for cross platform mobile app development. These are popular and it has very special features too. :angel:
cross platform mobile app development tools
according to me Xamarin is a popular cross-platform mobile app development tool that provides app store delivery, performance testing, Virtual testing, and monitoring. Efficiently used to design native apps for multiple platforms. Developers can use the same IDE, APIs, and language. You can also use corona for app development. if any one else have better idea please let me know?
What is Native Mobile App Development?
Native mobile app development involves building apps for particular mobile operating systems, and users access them from dedicated app stores (such as the App Store or Google Play).
1. Native Apps Have The Best Performance
With native mobile application development, the app is created and optimized for a specific platform. As a result, the app demonstrates an extremely high level of performance. Native apps are very fast and responsive because they are built for that specific platform and are compiled using platforms core programming language and APIs. As a result, the app is much more efficient. The device stores the app allowing the software to leverage the device’s processing speed. As users navigate through a native mobile app, the contents and visual elements are already stored on their phone which means load times are quick.
2. Native Apps Are More Secure
Web apps rely on different browsers and underlying technologies such as JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS. Developing a native mobile app is a great way to guarantee your users reliable data protection.
3. Native Apps Are More Interactive And Intuitive
Native mobile apps run much smoother regarding user input and output. These types of apps inherit their devices’ OS interfaces, making them look and feel like an integrated part of the device.
4. Native Apps Allow Developers to Access the Full Feature Set of Devices
Native apps are developed for their particular platform, taking full advantage of the software and the operating systems’ features. These apps can directly access the hardware of the device such as the GPS, camera, microphone, etc. so they are faster in execution, which ultimately results in better user experience. Push notifications are another huge advantage to choosing native app development. Push notifications go through the iOS server (APNS) which you need your app bundle ID and same with Google’s Cloud Messaging (GCM).
5. Native App Development Tends to Have Fewer Bugs During Development
It’s much more difficult to maintain two different applications in one codebase than it is two applications in two codebases. With native app development, you have fewer dependencies for bugs to occur because you’re not relying on a cross-platform tool such as Xamarin or Cordova. Hybrid apps access hardware through a bridge which often slows development down and can amount to a frustrating user experience.
I have recently been developing a middleware library that helps you to develop mobile applications, faster and easier than before. Finally it is live at https://topping.dev . This project started in 2012 to reduce time developing applications on android and ios platforms by creating a topping layer on mobile operating systems. All you need to know is how Android layout XML works and basic Lua or Kotlin knowledge. After developing it from time to time, I decided to make it open source. The project is in beta stage but most of the functions work. With the help of the open source community, I hope it will expand and grow and become the best of its kind. Also there are WPF and Web proof of concepts at github. http://github.com/topping-dev
