Rooted Android

Hi

Is there a way I can prevent my app to be installed on rooted phones.

Ie. Check if a phone is rooted and then abort the install from the App store?

Thank you.

For iOS there is a plugin that can tell you whether it is jailbroken

Actually, application doesn't know what is happening before installation or even upon, it can be done only if native app already installed, and knows how to test phone.

Ok then is there a simple method to check after installation and then to prevent the app from going past the startscreen or even uninstalling the app.

Hello,

Hybrid apps can't do this. You should write your native application.

This may help...but I guess you'd need to export it as an eclipse project and do from there. You can perhaps finish all your development in Appery, then export it as an eclipse project and follow this (for Android Only)
