Creating Apps for Mobile Devices

Creating Apps for Mobile Devices

On IT Forum someone asked about simple ways to create apps for mobile devices. Here is a list of what members recommended:

  • Bright cove
    http://www.brightcove.com/en/content-app-platform
  • mLearning Studio from RapidIntake
    http://rapidintake.com/mlearning-studio
    “very simple–no programming involved, and creates Web Apps, meaning they run on iOS and Android”
  • Gamesalad
    http://gamesalad.com
    “great for interactive not data driven app/game creation – Mac only”

  • The Learning Mag
    http://thelearningmag.com
    “Super easy, price is right… the app then works online/android/ios…”
  • LiveCode from Runtime Revolution
    http://www.runrev.com
    “In the case of iOS (the iPhone, iPad and iPod) you still must do the final step of using Apple’s software to publish the final app. But LiveCode is a thousand times easier than C++.”
  • Corona SDK
    http://anscamobile.com
    “The dev. community around it is very active (and growing faster than Livecode’s, which is why I went with it instead)” and “Great API…I use XCode for my IDE.
