I can use Nokia map with Smartface? Does Smartface support just Google map?
Smartface App Studio uses native map components. I mean that;
*For Android -> Google Maps
*For iOS -> iOS Map
You can also use webviews to display Nokia maps or maps from any other providers. Even though the experience would not be as good as native, it would be fine.

I am developing an app using here maps. I am using voice guidance provided by them for maneuver data.
Packages used
Voice Catalog ,VoiceGuidanceOptions, VoicePackage
For more understanding, Can I know what TTS engine is used behind by here maps ?
Here uses text in form of compiled packages for voice guidance. There is no API in SDK to modify them.
For Android, Here uses the standard Android engine i.e android.speech.tts.TextToSpeech
And for IOS, AVSpeechSynthesizer from AVFoundation framework.
These are default frameworks which are available on all devices.
Hope this helps!
I'm about to ship an app for tvOS and I would like to include some basic analytics in it, but I couldn't find any SDK available for this platform.
I already integrated the beta version of Fabric but only the Crashlytics SDK is working on tvOS. Answers is not available.
I've been looking at Google Analytics, Flury, Mixpanel but so far, it doesn't seem like anyone has a working SDK. Does anybody have some suggestions?
Thanks!
UPDATE:
Fabric started a beta for Answers on tvOS. http://answers.io/blog/introducing-answers-for-os-x-and-tvos-beta
For Google Analytics, if you're using the TVML and TVJS to build your app, you can use tvjs_google_analytics.
If you are not using TVML+TVJS, it looks like the Google Analytics SDK for iOS now supports bitcode, though they apparently do not have a tvOS target yet so you'll probably have to wait until Google gets around to adding that.
We could use 'Flurry-iOS-SDK/FlurryTVOS', '8.3.0' for tvOS Analytics.
I want to use Bing Map into my Windows Phone 8.1 store app. I know the WP8.1 SDK's MapControl API, which is used for map.
Is that a Bing map or Nokia map or HERE map, any official document about that?
If it is Nokia Map and not Bing Map, How to use Bing maps.
There is Windows 8.1 SDK available, and not for Windows Phone 8.1.
Any workarounds?
Thanks.
The built in maps in WP 7/8/8.1 is a Bing Maps control that is built into the WP SDK. This is also the case for WP10/Win10. Google maps has no map controls for Windows Phone.
You should target WP8.1 and not WP8 as that's the version most WP users are on. The WP8.1 maps control is also more inline with the WP10/Win10 map controls, so it will make it easier for you to upgrade your app in the future. You can find documentation here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/windows/apps/xaml/dn642089.aspx
I want to embed Ovi Maps in a desktop application in offline(but interactive) mode. GIven that these maps and their related map APIs are mainly targeted for mobile platforms, is this possible ? If so, can anyone point to any existing documentation on how to do this? Any pointers to existing examples would be a plus.
I considered using google Maps which can be integrated with desktop applications, but they cannot be used in offline mode.
Unfortunately, even if you can use Ovi Maps in your desktop application (using Nokia Qt C++ SQK with Location API, see http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtmobility/location-overview.html) you cannot use Ovi Maps in offline mode and there is currently no way to embed it (offline maps use is only possible on Nokia mobile devices that embed maps by default).
Regards
The latest branding of Ovi Maps has changed to Nokia Maps. The new - Nokia Maps Framework for Mobile HTML5 claims to have offline support. The API relies on the user using a browser which supports local storage, so provided your user base is using Google Chrome or Safari it would work on a desktop as well as various mobile platforms.
An example app can be found with the documentation
The offline claim can be found here
I would like to create an app for Blackberry, iPhone and Android using Adobe Flex. But I need to access the phone's contacts and I can't seem to find a way to achieve this.
This information is not exposed via AIR for Mobile APIs.
You can't access them on all platforms; and the ones where you can require complicated work arounds.
The next version of AIR should address this. I expect we'll find out more at Adobe Max in October.
