Hi i would like to make an application that allows me to send a message from my phone to my computer if that’s possible. Lets says that i have a button that display an image on my phone, and when i press it the image shows up on my computer. So i send the message from the apk and my computer receives it while running the app as an exe. I know if might not be possible but please tell me if it is.
Yes, communication between mobile and computer is possible. The choice of how you do it is up to you. This is a huge subject so you need a starting point. Look at bluetooth plugins and the networking library.
You will not be able to run the same binary that is output for iOS or Android on Windows or Mac, though you will be able to build the same Corona application for different operating systems without much change. You need to take into account their different input methods, like touchscreen versus keyboard and mouse, etc.
Okay thanks but can you give me a quick example of how i can do it, beacuse when i look at the networking libary there is not really anything about communication.
And like i said all i wanted was a button that send a message to the computer when i pressed it from my phone. You don’t have to write the code i’m just kind of confused and not sure where to start exactly.
You can’t really send a message from your device to a windows machine without a third party being involved.
Basically, your app will post a message to a server (or backend service) and your windows device will poll for updated messages and vice versa.
