KendoUI mobile capability

[Andrei Dragotoniu]

Hi guys,

one question please. I have used Kendo Mobile before and built quite a big application using it. What I am interested in now is to see if I can take it further.

Basically I need to build an app and deploy to a device as a real app, possibly using AppBuilder - this is something I haven't done before.

I need access to a few functions on the mobile device. I know I can use the camera, take pictures, do something with them - I did that before.
Now I also need to be able to get the coordinates at specific locations and they need to be as accurate as possible. Can I use the GPS of the device itself to get the data I need ?

Hi Andrei,

When you package an app built with the Kendo UI mobile framework and widgets using PhoneGap build (either independently, or as part of the integrated AppBuilder experience), it can provide access to device hardware APIs supported by PhoneGap, as listed here.

For additional information you may refer to the public PhoneGap documentation.

cool, thank you. I wasn't aware you can package a KendoUI app using Phonegap :).
