PAID - turning iPad apps into Universal apps - optimizing Universal apps for Android

jorkosjorkos Member, PRO Posts: 353

I have a number of iPad apps (resolution independent) and i'd like to turn them all into Universal apps. Further, i'd like to turn them all into Android apps.

I'm looking for a specialist in modifying apps for Universal play. I'm also looking for experts in converting iPad apps to Android. I'm seeking experts only. I will need the contractor to sign IP and confidentiality agreements.

If you are interested in this role, please contact me with iTunes links to apps you've built and references you have for GS contracting.

I like to start with a small project and if it goes well expand the project size. In this case we'll start with one trial app and if that goes well we'll expand the contract to convert a number of apps.

Thank you for your time

    You can easily make your app universal for iOS, just use some of the universal binaries on GSHelper website. However, if you're looking to create it universal for android aswell, things get a bit more tricky. I have a theory that might work, but I'm not sure it does since I'm not pro and I am on PC, so I can only try it on one device.

    Let's say for example that your designing an app for iPhone legacy and you want to make it universal. For each actor you have to make two behaviours, one for the witdh and one for the height. If you want an actor to be 10x10 pixels on the legacy, you use this:

    Change attribute self.size.width to 10/320*game.devicescreen.size.width

    Change attribute self.size.height to 10/480*game.devicescreen.size.height

    I hope you understand the concept. I believe that this is how the stretch feature works, so if you have access to the nightly builds, you can use that instead.

    Good luck with your projects and I hope this helped you.

    @colander You may be right but this is a commercial/paid sub-forum so it should be assumed that it's a paid request.

    You're a GS pro, huh? ;) Do you think my my technique would work?
