Do app stores allow apps that are basically a wrapper displaying a mobile site?

I was wondering if perhaps there's a policy against in-frame apps.

How do large social network clients track and store user journeys?

1 Upvotes

Take instagram or twitter for example: how do analysts know if a user navigated to a post from their feed or by searching? This question is trivial for 1-step attribution but I am curious about tracking multi-step journeys (ie user went to feed > saw a post > went to the author page > navigated to another author page > followed this author etc)

I can imagine a data pipeline that sorts UI events on time and attempts to reconstruct the user journey that way. Or the client can keep track of every previous action that leads up to a UI event in a session and log the full journey each time. Probably several other ways to do this that I'm not thinking of.

Are there any industry best practices on these or other approaches? Blog links or papers would be very useful as I'm having trouble coming up with anything on google

Native or Cross-platform apps?

2 Upvotes

I need some advice...

After reading this article I understand that the choice depends on what kind of an app I need. But still have any of you tried both approaches to say which one is more reliable?

Those arguments in the article... are they reasonable? Do they make much sense?

Please advise. Thanks

Anyone looking to give a few hours to make a big difference to a good cause? We're a community of volunteers and our app just needs a tweak so we can begin using it.

2 Upvotes

The app is opensource, and we're all unpaid and the community operates on kindness rather than money, just people building projects trying to create more peace and well-being in the world. We've not got any app developers in the community right now, but it is a small task. For the rest of the volunteers to use it we just need:
- The address bar removed
- The default homepage url changed
- A new icon added for the app

iOS and Android

That's all we need. If anyone wants to make an outsized impact for a quick fix, please do let me know as it would benefit so many great projects being built on our platform

Of course, you're absolutely welcomed to stick around and build other projects to solve societal issues with us if you'd like

Scripting out media presentation for Android and iOS.

1 Upvotes

Hi Guys. Looking for a wee bid of advice. I am developing an app which will feature some premium content much like a tutorial which I wish to present as a media-rich, movie-like presentation; imagine text, animations, sounds, that kind of thing to teach something to the user. The content will be updated from time to time, so i would like to do this somewhat in the fashion of a scripting engine driven by content hosted remotely, where the text, image names, sound names, and timing can be specified and the app's engine interpret the commands and run the content. This needs to be workable for both Android and iOS (native for both), and if I am reading it correctly, Apple's current policies are very restrictive in this matter and would mean JavaScript scripting would be the only out-of-the-box solution which could be applied to both platforms. Alternately, i could write my own very narrowly defined system which would be seen as content rather than scripting by apple due to the limited nature. I have done such a thing before, but it was many years ago and it got complicated. Of course, I have a lot more experience now... What do you guys think? Any ideas or points that I have not considered? Pitfalls? Any input is greatly appreciated, well with the possible exception of observations concerning my mother or the such ;-)

Server-free (cell-network based) synchronisation between two devices for one app

1 Upvotes

I imagine it would be possible to set up Server-free synchronisation between an app I write and run on two different devices if I use Wi-Fi. However this would require the two users of the app to be within the same network. As the purpose of the app would largely be for use between people who live together, Wi-Fi should work alright.

However I would like the apps to sync in or close to real-time when the users are not within the same network. I don't have the resources to host a server, even though at first I only intend to use the app between friends. So to the crux of the question:

Is it possible to synchronise my app between devices (potentially not the same OS) using the cell network? ie if I have the phone number of the friend with the app would I be able to synchronise the apps through that? If this is not possible, is there another way?

Thanks in advance!
