WAC (the Wholesale Applications Community) offers a single cross-operator payment API across 9 operators today with plans to extend to all 58 member operators. Mobile carrier enabled in-app billing promises better conversion for app developers since there is no reason to enter usernames and passwords.

Do you want to see how to use in-app carrier billing in developing a mobile app? Come join us as Exadel and WAC, in conjunction with Deutsche Telekom’s Developer Garden, present a hands-on interactive webinar in which we will demonstrate how to build an app with Appery.io Mobile App Builder and WAC’s in-app billing API. We’ll show everything from the WAC sign-up process to the creation and testing of a complete functioning app.

A write up about Appery.io on TechCrunch: Tiggzi’s Drag-And-Drop Mobile App Builder Goes Beyond Templates

The Appery.io team keeps making the great even better, as you can see in this latest release of Appery.io Mobile App Builder. New features include everything from iOS binary builds to updated support for jQuery Mobile and PhoneGap. Read on to find out more. Read the rest of this entry »

We just published a very nice hands-one tutorial on how to build HTML5/jQuery Mobile app connected to StackMob API. StackMob is super easy to use service for creating a mobile back-end for your app. Everything you create is instantly exposed as REST.

Give it a try!

We are going to be at two really awesome events. First is the AT&T Mobile Hackathon in Seattle April 13-14. Appery.io app builder is really an amazing tool to use during hackathons simply because it allows to build HTML5 and PhoneGap mobile apps super fast, connected to any REST API. Anyone who attends the hackathon in Seattle and wants to use Appery.io (or just wants to sign up) will get 4 months free Pro plan (that’s $200 value).

The second is Mobile Monday: Multi-platform Build Tools event on Monday, April 16 at Verizon offices in San Francisco. There are going to be 4 great presentations:

1. PhoneGap (Adobe)
2. Appery.io Mobile App Builder
3. Marmalade
4. Trigger.io

You can extend the functionality of any Appery.io component by adding custom JavaScript. Today, we’ll see how the Google Map component in Appery.io can be used to display driving directions both visually and as text.

With the help of the Google Directions service, we’ll create a mobile page similar to the directions example listed on the examples page for the Google Maps API. Read the rest of this entry »

We just published a new tutorial that shows how to build a mobile app with AT&T SMS API. The app allows you to send an SMS message and look like this:

At the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Exadel an­nounced a part­ner­ship with Aepona, the market leader in Network-​​as-​​a-​​Service so­lu­tions, to make it easier for mo­bile de­vel­opers to take ad­van­tage of Aepona’s ser­vice APIs for its telecom part­ners by in­te­grating the APIs with Appery.io Mobile App Builder. As a first step, Appery.io now in­te­grates the Aepona billing and au­then­ti­ca­tion APIs for in­cor­po­rating in-​​app car­rier billing ca­pa­bil­i­ties that elim­i­nate the need for a credit card or PayPal account.

Come join us as Exadel and Aepona present a hands-​​on in­ter­ac­tive we­binar about this. See for your­self how to use the Aepona APIs as we build an app in minutes.
