Exporting App to phone but wont install

Post by danwood83 » Thu Jul 25, 2013 3:14 pm

Hi All,

I have created an app on my phone which when i put it on it fails to install what am i doing wrong? ive enabled the phone so it can install unknown apps but doesnt work, any clues?

Also in future i would like to put an app on a website so all they do is click on the app on their phone and installs it automatically can this be done and how?

Hi Dan,

will move this to the correct forum...

But please provide a TAD more details if possible!
"Doesn't work" is definitively not enough information 8-)


Best

hmmm...
I think they are talking about Android actually.
That "enabled the phone..." is an Android thing.
But yes "...doesn't work" really gives no clues.

i managed to do it now. All I did was reinstall android and it worked. What happened was when i saved the app in the standalone section to distribute it would show on my phone but when i went to install it on the phone it says unable to install. This is why i reinstalled android again to see and it worked.

I font suppose anyone knows how to display a website content into a text field or label? i have posted a separate question but thought i may as well ask
