Making a simple iOS app using Gideros?

thanhquan1512

Can Gideros be able to make an app like this: https://itunes.apple.com/my/app/mazda-malaysia/id537217241?mt=8

For iOS only, I think we should use BhWax plugin, unfortunately I dont have any experience using BhWax.

Thanks for your comment

@thanhquan1512, for what it looks like, you can create it using plain Gideros, you do not need BHWax, though you can use that for Native iOS FX like animating view controllers, etc.

The only things that might pose an issue at this point is TextBoxes and WebViews (for which you would need BHWax)

Thank @OZApps, how about sending email and GPS location?

Btw, using native code for making app seem to be a better way.

@thanhquan1512, GPS locations is simple, you do not need bhWax for that, same goes for the Accelerometer.

have a look at http://docs.giderosmobile.com/reference/gideros/Geolocation#Geolocation

For sending eMail, what came to mind was spawing it using the url "mailto:" but I am sure that here I might have gotten mixed up with another framework. From the top of my head I cannot think of a way without involving bhWax or a plug-in.

Sidenote: for a simple app that does not have to be cross-platform, native might be a better option. But when you need to use graphics/bitmaps, then native Gideros is better.
