View IBM Cognos active report on smartphone - smartphone

This link says that active reports developed by IBM Cognos 10 can not be rendered on mobile [Refer last line under "Are there any Red Flags with IBM Cognos 10 Active Reports"]. Is it true?
My second question is- can I view active report through normal browser in smartphone without installing IBM Cognos Mobile?
Development environment:
IBM Cognos BI 10.1.1 Report Studio;
IOS/Android smartphone

It depends on your version of Cognos. As of 10.1 initial release, there was no support for Active Reports on mobile devices, so that link is correct for that version.
As of 10.1 Refresh Release 1 (AKA 10.1.1) it is supported on the iPad using the Cognos Mobile application. You can see the Active Reports section was added to the Supported Environments page for 10.1.1: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27022474

Launch PowerApps barcode scanner on Windows 10

In PowerApps there is the very useful Barcode Scanner control. But it's available only on iOS or Android. Do some ways exist to use this control to scan QR-codes via a canvas app on a Windows 10 tablet?
Based on Microsoft documentation, The barcode scanner control is only supported on Android and iOS devices. All other platforms will show a warning that some features of the app won't work.
If you have windows 10 tablet, you can test your app and check if you have any limation since not all features are guaranteed to work.

Xamarin forms: Issue reported while submitting windows app to windows store

I have developed a Xamarin Forms(.Net standard) UWP app and submitted it to windows store, but the windows store team reject the app because of the following issue.
The app doesn’t install on one or more of the currently selected device families due to an unsupported minimum OS version. If the affected device family is not intended to be targeted, then please de-select the unsupported device family and resubmit the app. Otherwise, please change the minimum and/or target OS version that the app supports (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/updates-and-versions/choose-a-uwp-version#choose-which-version-to-use-for-your-app)
My apps min and target versions are Windows 10 Fall Creators Update(10.0; Build 16299). I am targetting my app only for windows 10 desktop devices and windows 10 mobile devices. So what is the correct min and target versions for my app?
To Martin Zikmund:
If I downgrade target version to 15063 (Creators Update) my windows app build failed with the following error.
The solution for this error is changed the target version to Windows 10 Fall Creators Update(10.0; Build 16299), I found it here. If I changed the min and target version to Windows 10 Fall Creators Update the build will succeed.
You are probably trying to traget Windows 10 Mobile, which did not receive 16299 (Fall Creators Update) and got stuck on a sub-FCU build. To support it, you would have to downgrade to 15063 (Creators Update), but that means you can no longer use the latest versions of Xamarin.Forms which are targeting .NET Standard 2.0 which is not supported on 15063 and have to downgrade to version 2.X of Xamarin.Forms. You will also have to downgrade your library from .NET Standard 2.0 to Portable Class Library.
Practically this means that to be able to use the latest and greatest of Xamarin.Forms you will likely have to drop support for Mobile and target the other SKUs only. Judging by the numbers it is probably a good idea nowadays, as most users are on Windows 10 Desktop, iOS and Android anyway.

Ridaex TV's Android 4.4 version doesn't support applications

Ridaex TV comes with Android 4.4 operating system but when I'm trying to install applications from Google Play Store a message pops up saying "Application Unsupported".
Even i have faced the same issue with my Brother's home Ridaex TV. But i have installed some apps from Google Play. Few of them were unsupported, i have to download them from appsapk and install it via USB device.
The reason for this error message is that the Android Operating System in the older versions of Ridaex TV had Android 4.4 version, wherein the latest Ridaex TVs come with Android 8.0 version.
I too had the same question, and later realized that I had to:
Download a 3rd party website like appsapk
Transfer the apk file onto the usb device
Plugin the usb to the TV
Select the application to be installed
Click install.

what is the maximum Length of Recording Worklight Mobile Testing?

First thing is probably to install this mobile testing capability in Worklight Studio. If you have installed the Worklight developer edition in the past, you are familiar with installing Worklight Studio from the Eclipse Market place. This is also the place where you can find the IBM Mobile Test Workbench for Worklight (the official name of the mobile testing feature in Worklight)
If you use the Eclipse Help/Eclipse Marketplace menu and search for Worklight, you will find the Worklight Studio developer edition and the mobile testing component.
MTW does not impose any such limitation. The only limit is the memory and disk of your mobile device.

Aptana - Mobile Phone Emulators

I'm new to the Aptana Studio 3 development environment. I have created some .html pages (and want to add jQuery Mobile at some point) and would like to see how they would look on a mobile phone, such as an iPhone or Android device.
When I click on the RUN button I have the choices of (A) Firefox - Internal Server or (B) Internet Explorer - Internal Server. This does bring up a view...but it really doesn't show how the code will look on a mobile phone.
Is there a way so that I can click on RUN (or whatever) and have the view come up as though it was on a mobile phone?
Not sure if I need to install some emulator or plug-in or configure my environment?
I've heard that something called "Titanium Studo" might be better?
Any advice would be helpful.
Thanks
Titanium Studo is an IDE for developping mobile application such as Android & iPhone using javascript, and we test our application into Android & iphone simulator.
There is also a mobile web project that allows you to create mobile web application using HTML5 (like m.facebook.com), but i didn't see any web simulator for mobile in Titanium Studo.
For ipad, i use this website to test: ipadpeek.com
