Welcome to HTML5AppTester! This App has been designed as part of an educational project of the UNED (National Distance Education University) in Spain. The idea behind is that you can test your PhoneGap/Apache Cordova Apps easily on your device by just uploading your code to an FTP server. The App loads the resources and gives you access to all the plugins so that you can test how the App would behave on actual iOS device. There is a video tutorial inside the App which explains the process in a very detailed manner. The App is also integrated with the the RELATED environment used in UNED, so that students can test their laboratory Apps easily by just scanning the QR codes generated in the system. We hope you enjoy this App and that it helps you learn how to make great HTML5 Apps by being able to test them on a real iOS device!
