Help on testing an Android App

[ErosOlmi]

Dear all,

I need a little help on testing an Android App.
I's a simple, little (< 1Mb), free, Ads free app making VAT calculation

If you have an Android mobile phone or other kind of device and have some time ...
The app is at: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thinbasic.ScorporoIva
In Google Play Store you can search for "Eros Olmi" or "VAT Calculator"

Comments/Rating can be posted in Play Store.

App automatically translate in Italian/English/Czech depending on your device setup.
For all other languages English should come out.

If you would like to participate to translation in your language, attached an .XLSX file you can use to send me your translations.

Thanks in advance,
Eros

Ciao Michael,

unfortunately not.

It is just an experiment using B4A Basic 4 Android: https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html
At company we need to quickly develop mobile apps and we are experimenting with different development environment.

With B4A I was able to study language, make few beta release, publish the actual app in just 12 hours:

4 hours first day to study B4A, its possibilities, understanding the logic and looking around in community to search for some librariers
4 hours second day to develop the app and publish in alpha version
4 hours third day to understand Google Play Store backed console


Petr helped me to fix some bugs while in alpha stage and translate in Czech language

I do not know other mobile stores (Apple, Win) but Google did a great job with its automatic console testing and publishing.
You can publish and test very quickly. Almost all is quite instantaneous, Google runs automatic verification of your app over 10 different devices analyzing and storing data such as cpu, memory, network utilization giving all the results.
It also simulate finger tapping over every controls the app has on screens trying to crash you app. You get back videos of the mobile devices screens during Google testing.
Really fascinated by Google Play Console.

Anyway, an experience that is also giving me some ideas for thinBasic.

Ciao
Eros

PS: thanks for your vote :)
Just in case you have some spare time to translate the app into German using attached file in first post of this thread, I will be happy amend the app and publish a new version.
Translations are stored into a local app SQLite DB and loaded at run time depending of you device language (or English if no local translation is available in the DB)

No, never see it.
But RFO-BASIC seems an Android app to create/execute Basic sources directly into Android devices.
You cannot create native Android app and deploy them into Google Play Store.

Hello Eros,

New work to manage. :p

I asked a neighbour born in Portugal to translate, and as he is also fluent in Spanish ==-->> two columns more.
I asked too a friend in Belgium who was my boss when I joined the IT department, he gave me Dutch translation ==-->> one column more.
I think I can ask a friend, whose wife is from Poland ?

Regards
