Building Android/iOS app from a web site

Recently, I need to build an Android app and an iOS app for a website in a short time, so I choose the Convertify service.  Honestly, it's easy and costs a little money overall. But I still recommend it still needs time and programming skills to do that.

Convertify

Step1: Buy the apps

Step2: Download source code from the link given in the mail

Step3: Set development environment (Android on windows/iOS on Mac OS)

Step4: Open Android/iOS workspace file (DO NOT open project file, building error might occur sometimes)

Step5: Build Bundled AAB file (Use the key store they provided or create it on your own) / Archive generic device (including upload procedure)

Step6: Upload your AAB file to your Google Play Console / Select your version on App Store Connect (It might take a while after you archived it in Step5.)

Step7: Complete the forms and submit them

Notes:

    After you complete the above steps, you can start to customize your Android/iOS apps such as app name, URL, icon, version number and etc. Why? Because everything you do will affect the building/uploading/archiving failure if you were rookies just like me.

P.S. Convertify support is not very strong. If you ran into some problems, they would recommend you to use "publy.app" service to upload the app for you. Of cause, you need to pay for it.

[Android] How to Add Android ID or Fix 'No DB found' error

Change Android ID:

1. 使用adb.exe shell進入手機
2. 輸入下列指令

$ su
# cd /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/
# sqlite3 settings.db

3. 接著你會進入"sqlite>" prompt

sqlite> insert into secure ("name", "value" ) values ("android_id","DEVICE_ID_GOES_HERE"); 
.exit

DEVICE_ID_GOES_HERE 為你想使用的Android ID
4. 然後重開機即可


p.s. 若無此sqlite3指令，可自行放入，方式如下

adb push sqlite3 /data/local/tmp/sqlite3

chmod 775 /data/local/tmp/sqlite3
chown 0.0 /data/local/tmp/sqlite3

把其值改為1後，儲存離開

3. 最後，重開機即可!
