Native APK build with Appery is really slow
Daniel!
Please let us in more details. What exact parts are slow (a particular page or service)?
Please try to render all pages into one file to make things go faster.

Daniel!
Please let us in more details. What exact parts are slow (a particular page or service)?
Please try to render all pages into one file to make things go faster.
All are rendered into one file
No services
No JavaScript
Simple onClick actions for navigation
Lists, and text. Not a lot at all.
All pages are skippy (low framerate or update interval)
The browser is faster, its the app that is displaying the file
All android phones do this (Best buy trip)
Any app i create with a scroll-able list is very slow.
The html is all offline, no internet access is needed.
It is not the pageload speed, its how skippy it is.
Apple devices and computers (even old ones) run it like a charm.
You might want to update the way you load the pages in the application. For example try a different way or api for a webview. Also background processes on the application side that we have no control over could be reduced. I have not downloaded the src code yet but i look forward to review it.
As a further note, i tried this with Tiggzi 2 years ago. Same result. Skippy laggy and not even close to production ready environments. Also you may want to change how the html and css work. Try optimizing the way everything loads and is displayed for maximum performance.
Also android sometimes has issues with html anyways it is not entirely on you however there are many html5 webapps that work fine with android, Even when they are ported to a native application.
Besides, we are talking about shoving html5 code into a native application with a native view. Html5 may be the future, but phones need to be able to run this kind of content.
No. Even with no external recourses to be downloaded it still is slow. I assume it is some background processes that are not being reduced when not needed (appery's end) in the app. I paid for this so i dont think its ideal to modify it myself.
If you want to share your app with us, we'll be happy to test it and its performance. I don't see any reason why an app with a list and just navigation will not work fast. There are thousands of apps built with Appery.io and have similar functionality and work very fast.
Appery.io uses standard and open source technologies such as jQuery Mobile and Apache Cordova (PhoneGap). A lot of the loading and optimization is handled by these frameworks and of course by the browser.
Sure. Do i just shoot off an email? and open it for collaboration?
Ok i sent it. Please check it. thanks.
We'll test and let you know.
ok thanks
Any luck?
We'll try test app ASAP but we need more time for this.
