Eureka!!! Storyline to native mobile App and Facebook App

This is really great Siva! Looking forward to more of your explorations and discoveries!

Thanks. We shall do so. Honestly because  for educators like me Articulate Storyline is a really good inspiration. We start planning our teaching based on the tools in Articulate. But is sad it took long time for many of us to understand this. If someone do internet search for good elearning software, most of the time Captivate will come and also the comparisons will say Captivate will be better. 

But honestly after using both Articulate storyline is the best. It's simply superb! The forum and support we get is really amazing.

Thanks again for your appreciation.

Can I ask what you used to package your apps?

Hi Siva, thanks a lot for sharing the links! I was able to install and run the Android app on my Galaxy SII. I had done something similar a while back and used PhoneGapBuild to turn a Storyline project into iOS and Android apps. See some info here: http://wp.me/p2BoUf-6Z

I noticed a few things that I hope you don't take as criticism, but rather info to help you troubleshoot:

1. I don't know if the Android app is meant to be run on a tablet, but on a phone (like the one I used) the nav buttons and links are very small and barely 'touchable'. You might want to use custom nav buttons and make them at least 50x50px.

2. On the Facebook app, there were several screens where content was missing and the videos didn't work for me.

Thanks Siva for sharing that here, and very nice work that you've put together! 

Thanks a lot Ashley for your appreciations

Dear Michael

The reason for posting here to welcome critisism and make myself  better thanks for your time in installing and testing my app. I am greatly indebted for your feedback. 

1. I agree with you. Now I am focussing on the button sizes. Will try to explore the button size and make it better.

2. Yes I too noticed the video did'nt play. I am trying to find the problem. Seems like the format of the video have some problem. Will try to troubleshoot and post here if I overcome the error.

3. Of late I learnt that html5 have some issue in handling drag n drop and matching type question. Even with the direct html5 output from storyline, this type of matching question is not working. There were some suggestions like order of objects (bring front and send back) bring some issues. As I couldnot modify this correctly, I changed this matching type into dropdown menu which works successfully.

I will report back if I succeed so that others will find useful.

Once again thanks for the feedback and criticism which are the essential for progress.

Regards

Siva

Hi Siva, thanks for the update. Yes, do keep us updated on your progress. It's always great to see what other folks are doing with apps.

I did the same thing with PhoneGap. But the result was very laggy and buggy. :-/

Now the Facebook App is working properly with video. There was a mime type set for MP4. Now everything works properly! Planning to post the score on app page....let us see

Thanks Siva for the update, and glad you were able to figure out it was associated with the mime type. 

Nice work!

I have an FB page which I'd like to put files into also, but wonder if the files then become part of Facebook's "we can do what we like with your property" mantra. 

Great idea Siva, well played. 

And further, how complex was it to make the facebook app? I'm not the most techie of techs!
