There is a lot of that 'climate' that you will never see.
We are developing Android apps that will never see a Market Place. We just put them on the devices directly.
Those apps are used by big companies. They are very specialized apps.
Why Android? Because we don't need Apple to install the apps. And a lot of developers already know Java.
So, don't believe the hype.
- jonhendry 15y agoThere are also iOS developers whose apps will be directly installed by large companies, rather than going through an app store.
- mcantelon 15y agoThe ability to do this has always been - to me - the obvious advantage of Android over iOS, but this is the first time I've seen anyone bring it up.
- r00fus 15y agoBecause there is no advantage - Apple allows organizations to setup their own App delivery mechanism, which is fully secured - cost to entry is trivial compared to App dev and normal deployment costs.
