Trigger.io looks interesting but I am not sure I understand the pricing. Do you need to pay them if you want to distribute an app? Do you need to pay them just when you are developing the app or the whole time the app is for sale?
This from their FAQ does not clear it up for me:
"The monthly payments are a license to use the cloud build service and to distribute our native bridge with your applications with enhanced support,"
Unfortunately, the photo did not come through. I see broken image icon [bluish small one]. Also, on Wine List, my address/street is very long so it looks like it is cut off.
But trigger.io looks like amazing framework to build hybrids, and will definitely include it in my next project!
i just tried the app (iPhone4, iOS 5.1):
- camera/gallery selection does not go away, have to hit "cancel"
- star rating seems broken at first (apparently to small hit targets for finges)
- location in list has broken icon/image to the left
- broken image in detail view
- native bars gone after a few screens, must kill/restart app
- maps work
so far this is less than impressive. reading the post made me wanna try trigger.io, playing with the app made me decide otherwise - not production ready it seems.
It obviously helps that I'm already familiar with it and the other technologies I used - especially trigger.io (I'm a founder) and backbone.js. But with those it becomes pretty fast to implement these kind of apps.
