I'm trying to figure out how to run google apps scripts I made on a google spreadsheet in the sheets app on my android tablet.
The app does not show me custom Ui menus I made and when I tap the button I made that is assigned a script, it simply selects the button instead of executing the script.
The Ui menu and buttons work just fine when I open the sheet from my PC.
So is it possible to run apps script on a spreadsheet from the sheets app?
As far as Android is concerned, These are the ways to run a apps script.
Using the OnEdit trigger
Using Custom Functions
As far as custom menus are concerned, you need to create a separate Android add ons (rather separate apps)

I am writing you in order to ask how to approach my problem. I need to make an android application that can control a unity application in a real time. You can imagine it something like standart remote controller for TV.
I have an application in unity that works like mirror try on clothes and in that application there is a UI with possible t-shirts, pants, jackets etc which u can try on by clicking on it in unity project and what I want to do is just make an android application where I could see the the possible t-shirts, pants, jackets etc.. and I could select one by clicking on it on mobile and it will show on the body in the unity app. (so I wanna do exactly do the same what is now in the UI in unity project but I wanna do it through android app in mobile)
I was thinking of some server that will be created everytime I run unity project and my android app will connect to it and send data through the server to unity project but I was wondering if this is valid approach or do u think there is some easier/better way on how to approach this problem?
This is the first time I am making some online interaction between apps so maybe I am seeing it too simply.
Thank you for any opinion :)
I want to executive/run other pre-installed android based application inside my new developed application. For example I want to run what's app, Facebook, and Skype at the same time within my application.
I am analyzing about the android containers in which application can be load and execute. Like we used WebView container to load website.
Please suggest for the same
You should use Deep Links or better Dynamic Links - https://firebase.google.com/docs/dynamic-links/android/receive
How it works? You have 2 buttons in your App. On click on them you will open needed app or open it page on Play Market (or your own web site or something else, because you can config it via Dynamic Links).
I am creating an app that i would like to have apps running within it like let's say an iframe on a website. Is this possible? For example i will open my app and it will show the Gallery of the phone but while running my app, and not just by opening the gallery app which will make my app minimized. I want it exactly like an iframe, is this possible?
you can not run another app within your own application. You can do any of the following two
start the other app by sending intent message
or create the other app's features similarly in your own app.
According to your question if your need is to create a gallery then why aren't you creating a own gallery in your app? that will be more easier and flexible
You can not run another app's Activities within your app in an iframe style for security reasons, sorry.
Yes, I believe that is is possible for Apps to run cross platform if there exist a common data framework that creates a uniform standard for how data is stored and referenced. So the data can exist in the cloud but referenced via each app independently of the mobile phone platform.
If you create a mobile app which uses a custom url scheme to launch an external app, can that external app be visually contained within your mobile app? I want to launch a skype window, but have the tabs, borders, etc. of my mobile app (which happens to be an AIR app, but for which I could create a native extension) still visible, so that the skype window is one of the views within the app.
A corollary: can one get the position and size of the launched application window? If so it might be possible at least to create the illusion that skype (or any other launched app, for that matter) is contained within your mobile app.
This is not possible in iOS 6.
There is a possibility, that launching other apps and displaying their views just like you described, may find its way to public SDK in future versions. Now only system components can do this.
I have my Android app and there are 4 buttons. Each of them calls an application like
Facebook app, Twitter app, default email app and phone call.
When I am testing these buttons with Robotium, is it possible to close the external applications from within the test script?
There is no native way for robotium to be able to interact with multiple applications at once. See this question. It seems like they had a similar issue.
