Hi! That sounds like an amazing project you're working on. Making it easier to run AI models directly on phones is a big step forward, and I’d definitely be interested in testing it out. I’m planning to explore mobile AI apps, especially in the video editing and content creation space. Even if the models run a bit slower, having everything work offline is a huge plus.

Would love to stay updated and give feedback as your SDK develops. Count me in!

Sounds like you're diving deep into how tunneling apps work! These apps often use VPN-like methods to route traffic through servers, sometimes exploiting free access points. Configs like .hat may include encryption keys or payload setups. Keep exploring... lots to learn!

Hi I'm new android app development can you teach me

Since you’ve already tried caching and reducing network calls, you might want to look into pagination or lazy loading to avoid loading all rooms at once. WebSockets can also help by pushing updates instead of polling. Make sure your backend queries are indexed efficiently, especially for filters like player count. If the lag happens mostly during peak times, load balancing across servers could also make a difference. Hope that helps.

There are several challenges a business owner might face during mobile app development. One major issue is budgeting; costs can quickly escalate due to unexpected complexities.

Another common problem is communication between the development team and the business owner, which can lead to misunderstandings about requirements and expectations.

Additionally, ensuring the app works well on different devices and operating systems can be tricky, as compatibility issues often arise.

Finally, keeping up with the latest trends and user expectations can be a challenge, especially with the fast pace of technology changes.

One thing to keep in mind when planning an iOS app is the hardware and software constraints specific to Apple’s ecosystem, like limited background tasking or stricter App Store guidelines. Picking the right programming language, whether it's Swift or Objective-C, really depends on your team's experience and long-term plans. Also, if you're building something that relies on hardware features like Bluetooth, definitely double-check what’s supported, since Apple can be more restrictive compared to other platforms.

That sounds like a great project, running models locally on mobile is definitely gaining interest. I’m not building anything right now, but I’ve been exploring ideas around offline voice commands and simple summarization features, so something like this could definitely be useful.

Curious, are you targeting both iOS and Android from the start? And will the SDK include tools for quantizing or optimizing models for mobile performance, or are you expecting developers to handle that beforehand?

A good starting point is checking their portfolio, look for apps similar to what you’re planning, especially ones on both iOS and Android. Client testimonials can help too, but try to find detailed reviews or even reach out to past clients if possible. Also, ask about their development process, how they handle updates, and how involved you’ll be throughout. If they’re comfortable discussing past challenges and how they solved them, that’s usually a good sign of real experience.

Hey Tzanko,

That sounds like a great initiative—bringing LLMs and Whisper to mobile devices through an open-source SDK is definitely a step in the right direction, especially with how much edge AI is gaining traction.

I work with a team of mobile app developers and we're currently exploring ideas around on-device AI, especially for privacy-focused applications like:

Voice transcription and command recognition (perfect use-case for Whisper)

Offline chatbots or virtual assistants

Personalized note-taking or journaling apps with AI-generated summaries

Real-time translation or captioning tools

We’d love to learn more about your SDK—especially things like:

How customizable will model loading and inference be?

What platforms will it support first (Android/iOS)?

Any early benchmarks on performance or battery usage?

We might be interested in collaborating or testing your SDK with a few prototype apps. Let me know if you're open to sharing early builds or joining a discussion!

If the "status" doesn't change frequently, caching is a solid option. You could fetch it from the database the first time it's needed, then store it in a cache (like in-memory or Redis, depending on your setup), and use that for subsequent loads.

Look for top-tier freelancers on platforms such as Upwork or Toptal. Think about AI development companies that specialize in machine learning, natural language processing, and deep learning.

As you may know from other threads in these forums, I'm a huge supporter of Upwork. I know that they've chosen to no longer work with anyone in Russia. I believe Toptal still has a presence in Russia, so you could try there. You could also just try Googling for Russian-based freelancers.

Working with inexpensive freelancers is always great, especially if you could support people who are out of work, or no longer able to participate as they once did in the global marketplace/ecosystem, due to their country's politics.

Sure. Go to Moscow, check into their bureau of economic development and you'll do fine.

Let us know how it turns out.

Don't.

As we know russia is a war zone right now, how to hire developers in russia so we can hire at minimum rate

There are good and bad developers in every country. I don’t get the question.

For now I'd not visit the worst of the 195 countries in the world. The USA has changed teams so it's far too dangerous for visitors today.

Also:

The best in this kind are but shadows, and the worst are no worse if imagination amend them.

I'm planning to develop a mobile application and am in the process of selecting a development partner. With so many options available, what factors should I consider to ensure I choose the right mobile app development company? Are there specific credentials, portfolios, or client testimonials that are particularly telling of a company's capabilities? Additionally, how can I assess their expertise in both iOS and Android platforms?

Hi all,

I’m deciding between developing a native app (iOS/Android) or using a cross-platform framework like Flutter or React Native. What are the pros and cons in terms of cost, performance, and scalability?

What do you recommend based on your experience?

I guess a more research on this has to be made, problem is that it is hard to get the exact people who knows this and has done it before to give straight answers.

Why build it if Winni is already successful at doing it? Is there something you don't like about Winni that you think you can do better? What would you do to convince people to use your app instead of the already successful one? If you can answer those questions, then yes, it could potentially be a good business for you.

That sounds like an exciting project! An open-source library for running AI models on mobile devices could be incredibly useful for developers looking to integrate AI-driven features. While performance limitations exist, optimizing for real-time or lightweight tasks could open up many possibilities. I’d love to learn more about your SDK and its potential use cases. Have you considered applications like voice assistants, real-time transcription, or offline AI processing? Looking forward to seeing the initial release

I am looking to build a bakery app but i dont know is it good idea or not?

That sounds really interesting. Did you ever launch the SDK?

I am a bit in the same boat as you as DaniWeb Connect has an API but I have been really struggling getting it adopted. Sorry I can't be more help to you directly.

Sadly, I don't have any knowledge of how to program or code which is the reason why I can't develop any app whether it's for iPhone or Android products. I'm sure there are videos of how to do it on YouTube if you are interested and finding out.

Every new phone that is released always comes with a new upgrade and features that are added to the previous ones that have been in use. It is the only way they can actually get people to buy the new version of the phone. It doesn't matter if it's iPhone or android, the same thing is done with both of them.

The cost of developing a food delivery Android app depends on several factors, including features, development team location, and technology stack. Here's a breakdown:

1. Basic Food Delivery App ($10,000 – $25,000)
   A simple app with essential features like:

User registration & login
Restaurant listings & menus
Basic search & filters
Order placement
Payment integration
Order tracking
Push notifications

Hii
The cost of food delivery app development varies based on features, design, and complexity. A basic Android app may cost $10,000-$30,000, while advanced apps with real-time tracking, payment gateways, and AI recommendations can exceed $50,000. Choosing skilled developers ensures quality, scalability, and smooth performance for a successful launch!

Your food delivery app can include custom features tailored to your business needs. Hiring a food delivery app developer on an hourly basis is a common approach, with rates typically ranging from $20 to $25 per hour across most companies. Be sure to assess your budget and determine the specific functions you want in your app before proceeding.

While the VPS feature is mainly available in the US, you could try using a VPN or exploring alternative AR frameworks that offer more cross-regional support, like ARKit or Vuforia.

You can cache the user's "status" since it doesn't change often. On app load, check the cache first; if it's outdated or missing, then query the database for the current status and update the cache. This way, you minimize database queries while ensuring the app reflects any status changes when needed.

Sourcing the user's "status" from the cache can be a good approach in this case, as long as you have a reliable mechanism to keep the cached data up-to-date. Since the "status" doesn't change very often, caching it can help reduce the number of database queries and improve the app's performance. However, you'll need to consider how often the "status" changes, how to handle stale cache data, and the impact of serving outdated information to the user.

Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz asked where to start as well.
"It's always best to start at the beginning." — "Glinda of Oz," 1920.

Since you have no coding background that's where you begin. Take courses in coding and design.

But where does it end? Alice in Wonderland has a wonderful quote on that:

“Begin at the beginning,' the King said gravely, 'and go on till you come to the end: then stop.”
― Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

Hey! Developing a food delivery app can vary in cost based on factors like the app's features, design complexity, and development team's expertise. Basic apps with standard features (like user registration, menus, and order tracking) might start at several thousand dollars, while more advanced apps with real-time tracking, in-app payments, and push notifications can be significantly more.

Google's Geospatial API works in any region where Google Street view exists. If Google Street view doesn't exist for a given area, the API won't be able to generate data for that area. Sorry.

Hi,

I am from Pakistan and developing an APP for USA market. Can we use Google spatial api without VPS in non supported region where Google street view data is not massively available as it is in USA?

Thank you.
Asif.

You didn't tell what region. Given that Russia fined Google $20000000000000000000000000000000000 - that's 2.5 trillion trillion trillion dollars I don't expect Google to give you access.

Hi All,

I am Asif. I want to develop a mobile application in Android and iOS using Google AR spatial api. After running the sample applications in Google Code Labs, we are getting an error, VPS is not available in your region. Yes we know it is available mostly in USA. However my question is, how can we develop such an app in an non supported region?

Thank you.
Asif.

Your app always needs to "phone home" to query the actual member status with your server.

Otherwise, someone could log in twice, delete their account in one session and merrily carry on using their 'account' in the other session.

Sure, you could use the cached version if the user is just browsing, but as soon as they attempt some 'membership required' step, you need to verify membership at that point.

I'm personally not familiar with Android development, but I'm sure there is app storage.

https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage

When my app loads I need to establish the membership "status" of a user. Their "status" will determine how the app behaves. Do I query the database for the "status" value each time the app loads, or can it be sourced from cache? The "status" could change for a user, not not very often. Thanks.

You might want to try updating your google-services and firebase dependencies, as there could be some version mismatches causing the issue. Another thing that worked for me in a similar situation was invalidating caches in Android Studio and restarting it.

Hello: You seem to be addressing a difficult problem. Sometimes resolution of dependency might be challenging. Verify that your Gradle files are current and look for any versions' discrepancies. Also sometimes deleting the cache and restarting Android Studio works. Keep cheerful.

Hi all,
My team and I is making an open-source library for running AI models on the phone. We are planning to create a very simple SDK which will allow you to download a model and use it on your phone. We plan to release an initial version in a month. Our library is based on llama.cpp and whisper.cpp.

We are looking for app developers who want to build mobile apps with this functionality in order to understand their needs better. Have in mind that models will be running slower on the phone than they can run on a laptop. We want to understand what uses this library could have.
If anyone is planning to build a mobile AI app, please let me know.

It sounds like your project’s dependency management might have run into some version conflicts or outdated references. Have you tried clearing the cache or updating your build tools to the latest version? Sometimes resetting the environment or specifying exact versions for dependencies can help resolve such issues.

It sounds like you're familiar with the typical challenges of app development! I've been around for a while, but I’m always learning new things and adapting to different contexts. Every project has its quirks, right? How’s your current app dev work going?
