With Nokia’s Ovi Store (now Nokia Store) reported to supposedly deliver 160% more downloads per app than Apple’s App Store (and possibly well over 9 million daily downloads now) it would be quite understandable why other developers may want a piece of this action.
There’s certainly an audience there willing to buy great quality apps. With the Qt API Mapping tool for iOS, iPad and iPhone apps can be ‘ported’ over for Symbian, N9 (and whatever secret Qt platform they have to unveil at Nokia World :p). But it’s not just iOS. There’s also one for Android and Windows Phone.
If you are familiar with iOS development, this tool assists with porting iPhone or iPad apps to the latest version of the Qt platform delivered in Symbian phones and the Nokia N9 smartphone. Using this tool, you can browse a list of iOS API calls and find the equivalent classes and methods offered by Qt. You can also search for a specific iOS API call and find the equivalent Qt API call, along with example code and links to the API documentation for both platforms.

where can i find these ported apps online? n where can i request for apps that i want to be ported? or will i now have to learn to do this myself? :(
ReplyDeleteThe idea is that the material to make it easy for those having done the original app, to port their app to Qt powered Symbian devices and Nokia N9, and generally lower the hurdle to port between platforms. So at the end this message needs to go there, so feel free contact the vendor of the given app on another platform. If you don't mind presenting a public wish lists, why not start a new thread at the just opened discussion board at Nokia developer http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Discussion/forumdisplay.php?275
