Hi guys (and gals)!
This is my second venture into app development for mobile, specifically Android, and it was good to see that Corona Enterprise is now free, but then when I tried it and I later found out that developing for Android on a PC is not yet fully possible, well…
Anyway, I got into this because I need to “port” our SMS forwarding system to Android. Every year, we have at least one nationwide gathering, and we use SMS to give instructions/directions to our committee heads, and the committee heads then message their volunteers via SMS also.
So we had a system where you send it an SMS and that will forward the said SMS to the volunteers registered under that committee. It ran on a desktop and sent the SMS through GSM modems attached to it. After about a year, the system began to fail more and more (in part maybe because of Windows updates), so we decided to look for other solutions and It was only about one or two months ago that I thought of developing an app to do what the server was doing.
And so with that project in mind, and with the hope of the people who have gone before me in Corona journey, I hope to be able to develop the app well before our Nov. 30. event.
Looking forward to this exciting journey with you!
