I have been out of the AS3 world for a few years now, and I feel the question is valid as things change over time and I haven't followed the headlines.

Is it still possible to build and deploy air apps for iOS & Android that can be deployed in their separate stores?

Also, as when I worked in AS3 it was only for swf, so I'm not sure if this is possible : to build a phone app that has a local database for offline use.

ActionScript

Hi.

Yeah. It's totally possible to deploy apps to both stores using Adobe AIR.

And you also can save data offline or online on mobile or desktop devices. Whatever you need.

Thanks for initial answer, to clarify the 2nd question :

When you say save data, are we talking about json string or a true sql DB? (SQLite or a larger distribution?)

I will need to create a few tables so the user could make requests in offline mode.

Hi again.

Both. AIR has dedicated classes to work with local SQL databases.

Please take a look: flash.data - Adobe ActionScript® 3 (AS3) API Reference

As far as I can tell, AIR is capable of working with any kind of database, it can make http requests, access REST APIs, work with PHP, and so on.
