How can I send feedback with Testflight Android? - android

The TestFlight SDK for iOS has a submitFeedback method, so the user can give feedback from within the app and the feedback will show up on TestFlight for that specific build.
I cannot seem to find an equivalent method in the Android version of the SDK.
I know I can use the feedback e-mail address shown on the TestFlight page for the app build, but is there really no way to do this via the SDK?

TestFlight is dropping Android support, so this will probably not be fixed.
Ended up using HockeyApp instead, which supports iOS, Android and Windows Phone.

How do I use the Alexa Voice Service device SDK in an Android app?

I have successfully built the AVS Device SDK on Android with the help of the reference guide to building Device SDK on Android that the Amazon team sent me. However, as a novice Android developer, I don't know where to go from here to actually use the SDK in an Android app. For example, I'd like to press a button in my app to activate Alexa and speak to her/it. How would I proceed after successfully building SDK on Android? I have pushed the local build with all the compiled libraries to the adb shell and have ran most tests successfully.
I know I'm most likely going to have to user NDK and JNI, but yeah, some guidance would be great.
Also, would it be possible to run your sample app on Android? I am aware of the previous Android sample app, but I'd like to try running this new C++ SDK sample app on Android too.
You'd need to build it on your own. There is no official support to iOS/Android in avs-device-sdk and Alexa assets are not public (e.g. Alexa logo for the button).
In order to make it work, you should integrate LoginWithAmazon SDK and once you have a valid token you should be able to start using AVS.
I hope an official iOS/Android AVS SDK will come anytime soon.

Titanium and Testflight won't work together

Here's the case:
I'm building an app and distributing it for beta-testers through Testflightapp.com.
Testflight provides a useful SDK, from which you can detect the user's interactions in the app.
The problem is, that although I've implemented the SDK as every tutorial/guide/forum-thread says, I'm not recieving any data..
Here's the data from the file running the testflight sdk. I've tried both the com.0x82.testflight-sdk-module from Titanium's own module-site and the NappTestflight-module (https://github.com/viezel/NappTestFlight).
What am I doing wrong?
(I've tried changing the guid of the app to the app-token and running it with normal guid)
Thanks !
I use this module to talk with TestFlight.
Setup was simple, and it is free. You need to check inside your App on TestFLight to get the correct id.

Service like testflight for iOS + Android + BlackBerry

I have an application built with PhoneGap, and I want to send it to my clients with an elegant interface and get feedback. I have used testflight before for iOS, but it is not available for Android or BlackBerry.
I installed HockeyKit on my server. The alpha version of HockeyKit supports Android but there are a lot of files to upload and organize.
Is there any solution that can handle all three platforms - iOS, Android and BlackBerry?
AppBlade supports all three of the platforms you are looking for. To be honest I have only used them for Android, but it worked pretty well for that. I also got some great support from their engineers when I had questions and they also seemed to be fairly responsive to feature requests.
Knappsack sounds like it might fit the bill. It's a mobile application management platform that allows over the air installation of your apps and fine grained control of the users that have access to said apps. It's open source, so you can install it on your own server, but there is also a free tier that may suit your needs.
Can try HockeyApp, but it does not work with Blackberry. It is the best analog testflight.
It's early 2015 now and the solutions listed above either don't exist any more, or aren't free if you have more than a few apps/testers.
The best TestFlightApp.com alternative that I have found is Crashlytics. They support iOS and Android (no Blackberry).
Here's some info on the service: http://www.crashlytics.com/blog/launching-beta-by-crashlytics/
And here you can sign up: http://try.crashlytics.com/beta/
My customers prefer it to TestFlight, and for me as a developer it's also easier because they have an OS X app through which I can upload the archives and invite new testers (TestFlight's desktop app was broken for me).
Another really nice feature that Crashlytics offers is that (if you enable this feature), the OS X app will automatically upload the symbol files. When the app crashes for your testers, you'll get an email (when it's a new issue) and you can view statistics and stack traces of the crashes that occurred.

Cross Platform App Development with Corona

I am wanting to build a cross-platform mobile app for iOS and android devices. I have never tried making a mobile app before and was thinking of using Corona SDK. I went to the Corona site to download the SDK and I have a few questions. First, it says that "Due to Apple's restrictions, you cannot build for iOS on Windows". Does this mean I can only build an Android app or does it mean I have to publish it to the app store using an Apple computer? Seeing that Corona is cross platform I think it would be stupid if you had to use an Apple computer to get the cross-platform benefit of Corona. Second, do I have to subscribe to Corona to be able to put my app on the app store or can I do this for free with the free version of the Corona SDK. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
See this page about distribution. Yes, you need a mac to use iOS because of Apple's restrictions.

Integrating google analytics without using xcode for ios and Android?

I am developing a mobile app keeping in mind that I will be targeting both the iOS and Android platforms. I now wish to integrate Google Analytics into my app.
I have come across a lot of stuff that suggests using xcode and integrating the GA libraries into it(for iOS). I know it can be done this way but I don't have the Mac machine to run my app on.
My question is if there exists any way by which I can integrate GA into my mobile app without using XCode.
So far, I have used the phonegap plugin into my App and I am developing and testing the app simultaneously on safari before making any deployments on server and finally testing my app on an iphone.
Kind Regards,
Ronan
I have figured it out. I have now developed my application so that this can be accessed like any other web application(website) instead of using it as a downloadable app, therefore, I am now using the standard async GA script which is now working perfectly for me.
