Question

Will I be able to create my app on Blackberry phone ?

Hello there,

I would like to make an application in Flash, with Adobe Air for IOS, Android and I hope on Blackberry phone too.

It's pretty simple application, the only tricky part is I need to access camera, GPS and be able to share on twitter or facebook some information inside of the application.

For IOS and Android I know it's possible but what about Blackberry, I think access camera and GPS is possible but what about share stuff on twitter and facebook, should I do it in some HTML, Javascript view ?

Would I be able to export my app only in Blackberry OS 10 ? or older is possible ?

Thanks for your help

Ocelyn

In my opinion, it wouldn't work in Blackberry.

Air apps will only run on playbook's tablet OS and the upcoming BB10. I'm not sure if any earlier blackberry phones had flash in the browser.

I tested one of my air apps on a BB alpha device (phone prototype) it was nice.

Yeah I was asking about Adobe Air converted in apps for BB. So do you think camera or gps would work smoothly on BB alpha device ?

Thank you!

Not only will it work on the new BB10 phones, but if you get approved for their developer promotion, they will guarantee you $10,000 income in the first year or pay you the difference!

Honestly, anyone who does not port their existing mobile Air app to RIM is crazy.

-Resolution is similar to the new android phones, there's really not much code to change.

-Devices are new, app world will not be flooded yet (I assume).

-Air is pre-loaded on the OS

-Canadians are nice people
