Hi,
I'm new to android app development, got to work on some offline Application development which uses native or mobile (RealmDB) database.
I've couple of things which are not clear before starting up the project. Basically need to develop some game which will have the following features,
User Login, Game Playing , User logout. Once after playing the game result should be synced to some other webApp. Also have around 900-1000 images in the game.
My Questions are,
-- What is the best approach to handle overall App, in terms of Application architecture ?
-- How images can be stored or retrieved in a best / faster way ?
-- About 2 way data sync up, how this can be handled ?
-- About user login, when it is offline App , how user can be validated ?
Can any body help along with example / piece of scenarios.
Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone. I just wanted to introduce PTPT's lastest Android software release. So if you're looking to try something different with Android, this would be the opportunity.
"PTPT is a user interface paradigm and application framework to converge, manage and use all the user’s digital assets productively. It helps to shift usage scenarios for tablets from purely consumptive to truly productive information processing. In PTPT’s database, all data is represented in a universal way along four dimensions: People, Things, Places, Time. The interaction paradigm allows the user to work with the data directly."
We made much improvement with the UI and have fixed the initial issues relating to crashes etc ...
We would like to invite you to beta test, and really look forward to constructive feedback.
More info is on the website -> ptpt.de
To download the .apk, simply register under the "Community" top menu -> Join the Beta.
Hope you try it out.
Cheers!
From Desktop and Web to Android Devices : I Need Help
For over twenty years I have developed apps using Borland's Delphi and BDS development tools. I now want to migrate a subset of that functionality to Android devices ... but need help getting over the learning curve hump.
The general particulars are:
1. Master-Detail, content management. Multiple detail data tables for each master record.
2. Image gallery. See all images in the gallery or only those images which have been linked to a master record.
3. Taking a pic and linking it to a master record.
4. Ability to query for local businesses ... such as "Find <business name> within <x miles> of my current GPS location.
I currently have Eclipse and the latest ADK tools installed. Also, I have some Java experience.
Is there a place I can go to find a baseline source code framework that satisfies these requirements and demonstrates how to store and manage the master and detail data and links?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can be contacted at [email protected]
Many thanks, from an old dog trying to learn new tricks.

In my opinion, the best way for not a game development is using Xamarin platform. Xamarin is pretty good, but it's not a free.
All I can provide is the hard way : stick to a place like stackoverflow.com + the android official documentation.
You'll find tons of content relating to your question ; I'm sure about that.

The offical Android Tutorials are a great place to start.
I've found that if you start by trying to build something that you have in the past but target it at Android you'll learn a lot about the framework, its quirks, and how to do things maybe a little bit better than what you'll sometimes find on various sites. I second that Android's docs and tutorials are a great place to start, but you could take them and piece something together right from the start. It's also a great way to see how your project will work and perform on a real device running the Dalvik or ART VM FWIW, you'll notice that things will perform MUCH better with ART.
If you are a window coder, using java or c# is easy for transform, so download android studio or xamarin, open examples and do again.

I have just create a website for android apps statistics.
I find there is leak of statistics of android app comparison with other developer, so I create a website force on statistic that let you know rankings of you app, and how well is your app perform.

Suggestions:
- you can represent to 5 or top 10 apps as graphs in Apps Statistics and Developers Statistics
- you can put a description page describing how this tool could be used.
- put a about us page

Working with startups can be both challenging and rewarding. For a small design/dev shop this can mean operating under strict time and budget constraints. On the other hand, nothing can be more exciting when millions of people use the product you created. That is why i wanna share my experience with you and recommend you to check web development service cause that guys can create everything and help you with some marketing/seo.
I appologize if this is a dumb question, but I am new to app development, altough some experienced in php/html.
I want to create an app where user fills in forms. The app development is easy to find info about, but i also want a back end plattform where I read the submitted forms and organize users.
So, my question. Is there a sort of ready wordpress like plattform to customize, or should this be built from scratch? If so, which platform is the best?
One note I should add about Buddy (full disclosure: I work there) is that we maintain independent instances of the platform in different locations around the world. If you need to host your backend in Europe (for response time or data sovereignty reasons, for example), you can choose your app backend to be sandboxed in the EU. Likewise the US and likewise China (with Brazil, Singapore and Australia coming soon).
he best way to develop mobile apps is to use REST services. So now you can choose any thing.
Any language that can used for server side programming can be used.
Now it is up to you choose the language.
If you familiar with JavaScript then you can try nodejs. You can make small app server in it.
But if your server software design is very complex (containing threads and synchronisation) then java can be handy.
But there is no restriction of language.
Firebase should be also a way to go for this.
The best android back end services include, Parse, Kumulos, Kinvey, backendless, QuickBlox.
Concerning the forms where users can fill up information, would something like help out?

On Apple's platform you might need an iPhone developer - it is quite possible to create and publish an iPhone app using your form.
I did take the help of mobile apps development service in toronto to know the process which is described here: http://support.brightcove.com/en/app-cloud/docs/step-step-guide-publishing-apple-app-store-using-mac
Thanks Carol for sharing such a wonderful article.

I have heard good things about Hasura (Not affiliated in anyway). And I think parse - mentioned above - is no longer available.
I'm wondering why nobody mentioned Google CLoud or AWS. They are most mobile friendly for a good price
Hi, if you will decide to build from scratch, there are different options/frameworks. But If you use kotlin you should look to Ktor.

Hi
We need to create an app that would basically play some videos and music. So it will have a media player, besides we need some customization for the screen that contains the player and for the player itself. It will also have the user profile screen where it will show some statistics (like, how many videos the user watched, how many days in a row they used the app, etc., and a calendar that displays the user's activity). Thus the app will also have a backend where all the user data will be stored. There will be also some functionality to choose specific videos depending on one's mood. We don't have a budget to order this work to a developer so we are looking for an app development platform. I saw, there are quite a few platforms available out there. But we need something powerful enough on the one hand but easy to learn on the other hand so that we could finish the app as quickly as possible. Can somebody suggest a platform for this task? It should be able to create apps for both Android and iOS.
you dont need to be good at programming but should have basic programming skills if you just want to make an app for you than you can use code from internet
Thank you for sharing with is this is really good for us .
