Anyone having success with Android and Corona?

I’m curious because I see a lot of “this doesn’t work” posts. I’m almost complete with my app. Not a game, just a basic app to supplement the content on one of my sites. There are a few things though that I want to add that just aren’t working out.

I keep reading about the successes with iPhone and Corona, I’m wondering is anyone having success with Android and Corona. By success, I don’t mean monetary. I mean just is Corona working to meet your expectations in creating quality app.

I’m trying to decide if I should drop $200 (or $350) or just spend the next couple months piecing together my app with Eclipse and help on line. [import]uid: 38758 topic_id: 9608 reply_id: 309608[/import]

You can build for android without buying the license. It will just show a ‘this is a trial’ popup. Test it out and check you don’t have any critical issues.

There are a few problems on android, but for the most part it works. See my page here - section 7 - and how to support most android versions:

You’ll see links to my game ‘walkabout’ on that page - there is a free Lite version. You can compare the Android and iOS versions if you have an iPhone and an Android phone handy. You’ll see the iOS version runs faster, but there is very little difference between them otherwise. [import]uid: 8872 topic_id: 9608 reply_id: 35331[/import]
