I need to write an application for iOS and Android. Don't have a need and time to write a native app, so thinking about using a cross-platform mobile development tools, such as phonegap, titanium etc. Which tool should I use? I am interested in the product offered by Icenium that uses Apache Cordova framework. How is it different from Phonegap? May be there are other tools which are better? Thank you!

Answer 1

To answer directly your question "How is Icenium different from Phonegap?", we've published a blog post: What's the Difference Between Icenium and PhoneGap Build?

Answer 2

One big difference: The fact the Phonegap is free, whereas Icenium is not. :( That being said, I recommend using Phonegap Build from Adobe, alongside of Phonegap. It is what I use.

Icenium seems to have better integration with Visual Studio, so if that is your thing, it may be nice. I use sublime text 3, so I have yet to try the tools with both of them and Visual Studio.

Also, you may be interested in Xamarin, if you know C# (or Java, as C# isn't to hard to pick up if you do). I would love to learn to use it at some point, as I haven't yet.
