Thread: app owners/developers on macs

This might be a long shot but I figure if l4p can't help me np one can. I have an APp right now that I need to test on my phone. My developer only has worked on PC's so me having a mac is causing issues. Can anyone walk me through the process of getting the app on my phone? I would really appreciate it! I have all the files but I guess the problem is finding an emulator? I'm not good with comp lingo so any help would be awesome.

Is it an iOS application or otherwise?

If iOS- become a developer on [developer.apple.com] for $99/year. Download latest xcode. It has an iPhone emulator built in. To test on the device, register for the ios distribution certificate (immediate) and then send the build to any devices you have registered. This is the only way to truly send the app to the device without any jailbreaking and honestly, best way to test how it will really work.

if not iOS - Ask around more, I don't work with anything other than iOS

Hope that helps.

Ah damn! It is not IOS, this is so frustrating!!!!

what kind of app is it?

An app I can't talk about on a public forum :X . There is only 1 other app in the android market that does this and it apparently doesn't work(tons of bad reviews). The app that doesn't work also got 10k + downloads within a couple of months.... I hope to blow that thing out of the water.

If you can help I would really appreciate it, just PM me.

i just meant iOs, android, or who knows what else - and what kind of phone are you trying to install it on?

why only android? why not also make it for iOS? or is there already one out there on iOS?

Sign up as a developer on the Android Marketplace. Should be a way to get it on the phone that way. If not you may be able to load it onto the phone through USB for app development, poking around on my Android, I thought I saw it somewhere.

I wish I had time to learn a bit about APP development, nice business.

Ran out of $$ . I think Android is biggest bang for your buck since there are more phones running Android then IOS.

I have signed up as a developer but I am so over my head with this I have no idea what to do. HMM I guess this just means more googling!

I'm still running into problems with this one guys. If anyone can help or knows anyone that can help please get in contact with me!
