Hi everyone!!!
This is my very first time in B4A and trying to install a small app with MySQL. It's work in debugging environment... but when I compile it to install in a android phone, fail.
I'm not sure what I have to do, I've seen a lot of videos and posts but I haven't found "the procedure" to make a simple installation.
I need to test my app with some testers, not using playstore.
What files do I need to send for a correct installation??? Can I use a whatsapp msg for that? All the libraries used in my app: How they install on testers mobiles???

Thanks so much.

What error message showed?
You can compile the app in Release Mode and distribute the apk.
You can upload the apk in dropbox or web hosting and share the link in whatsapp or email.
You do not need to concern about the libraries used as it is compiled into the apk.

You will find the .apk inside the folder "Objects" in your project

When I run the app (released) on mobile tester, the app cannot connect to database... and fail.

It works!!! Thank you so much.

hello, you have the method using mysql's jdbc driver. It is not so secure because your app can be decompiled and people can get data from your bank if it happens and people are aware of the database.

but for simple, personal projects, or even that your application will not be posted on google play, it is very simple to use.

See the example I left.
