Hi All,
We have decided to move forward with iOS app for our initial release because of the following:
- iOS users are mostly located in North America and Europe, we want to target to U.S users in our initial release.
- Complexity: iOS app development is simpler than Android - There are so many version of Android -- each with their own spec.
- Experience - The current team has more experience in iOS.
However, we don't want to have a huge gap between or iOS and Android release -- that' why we are using React Native technology, which allows us to share 90% of the code with the Android platform.
After a successful iOS release, we can focus on Andriod development and test the functionality thoroughly in all devices.
Again, every team has their own preferences and we have to start from somewhere.
Thanks for the patience,
Gilgamesh Team
what platform used for mobile application? is it for android or iOS or both of them?
I think it's only for IOS ,because there's no mention of Android application in the project's roadmap as you can see..
they will release android version for sure in future, but why poor android always comes second for most company even it's most popular.
I agree with you bud but regarding your question on why android users always comes to be second priority after ios is simply because Apple has a bigger market while on the other hand android is an open source os for users whuch technicaly means that most users dont avail for any paid service unlike apple.
Wait what? Android has like 8x the market share of iOS. That point is totally moot. Also being open source has 0 connection to availing paid services. Most of the top paid apps are on both platforms and have sales in both places.
Very interesting information and now I understand the choice of the team. Of course worse than running on both platforms but the best choice of the two.
