Any feel for when MacOS Catalina support will be available for Corona? Just a rough indication?
Background: Want to do some non-urgent update on a Corona app I made, but just noting I’ve already upgraded my Mac to the Catalina (10.15) Beta. I’m a bit rusty on Corona so don’t particularly want to battle issues that might be just due to Catalina… So wondering if I should wait a few weeks?/months? before Corona should be ok on Catalina…
Is there something not working on 10.15 beta?
Are you updating an iOS or macOS app?
If it’s a macOS app, Apple won’t accept submissions from beta OS’s anyway, so you will likely need to wait on the macOS Gold Master sometime in September.
If you’re finding issues running Corona to make iOS apps, the 12.2 version should be still able to be created and deployed. Until we get reports of issues under 10.15 other than the “This OS isnt’ supported message”, there probably own’t need to be a lot of testing until the GM comes out in September.

It’s actually to update an Android app…
It’s the same response, but with some additional information regarding Android. If this is a new app, you will need to get the yet unpublished 2019.3502 (see the Android 64 bit testing forum to get the links to download it). All new apps published after Aug 1 have to be 64-bit. If you’re updating an app, you can stay with 3490 for now (until Aug 2020).
But the warning about not being compatible is just a warning and in September, we will update Corona to include 10.15 as a compatible version. Until then report any errors you come across.

getting back to this - I downloaded 2019.3510, built a test app, and built for Android however nothing seems to happen? (on Catalina Beta 5):
