Submitting an app to Samsung

QuizMaster · July 25, 2016, 4:00pm

Hello fellow Corona users.

My first game, Game Show Adventure is doing fairly well on the Play Store and now I’m looking to publish to the other stores.

I figured I’d start with Samsung as it’s already using Android and my guess is it shouldn’t be too difficult but I’m not finding anything here at Corona Labs to point me in the right direction.

Has anyone here had experience submitting their app to Samsung?

I want to know if Corona supports Samsung’s IAP and I don’t see the option to choose Samsung in the build phase.

Can anyone tell me the difference between building for the Play Store and Samsung please and what steps I need to take and what to look out for?

Thanks.

Corona SDK does not support Samsung IAP or other private API’s (i.e. their version of Google Play Game Services, etc.). You should be able to integrate them using Corona Enterprise. That said, there are three feature requests that you can vote up. If we get enough votes we might consider it.

Thanks Rob, so I won’t be submitting to Samsung any time soon then.

I’ll vote for those features never the less.
