You don't have to test on 5+ actual Android devices - emulator supports creating specific devices with different hardware and software versions. Plus you can alway push your beta in the market and let lots of users with actual devices do the real testing for you.
- xuki 16y agoSometimes you need to test on real devices for real performance and experience. I only have to test my app on my iPhone 4 and 2nd gen iPod touch. Same thing applies to beta testing on iOS, but since Apple don't allow beta app, developers have to issue adhoc build.
- blinkingled 16y agoDon't you have to test on an iPad? For that matter - testing on couple real Android devices is equally effective - Galaxy Tab and Optimus S or G1/ADP and Nexus One. My point was that you don't need to test on ALL different Android devices - just a few which seems to be similar with iOS from what you said. If you want to test lots of real devices - it's actually easy with Android - push the beta in the Market and let users do the compatibility testing.
- xuki 16y agoIf my app is not designed for the iPad, no. If it is, I don't have to test on the previous 2 devices.
