AppConnect for Android supports apps developed by:

- in-house developers
- MobileIron
The apps can be:
- Java apps
-
Hybrid web apps, including Cordova and PhoneGap apps
Hybrid web apps use Android WebView and WebKit technologies to access and display web content.
-
Java apps which use C or C++ code
C and C++ code are native code languages on Android devices. These apps are built with the Android Native Development Kit (NDK)
- Apps built with the Xamarin development platform
- Apps built with the React Native mobile development framework
All apps are wrapped with the AppConnect for Android wrapper. All apps are distributed by uploading them to the App Catalog on the MobileIron UEM as in-house apps.
Wrapping does not support all Java APIs and features or all NDK features. Details are listed in the MobileIron AppConnect for Android App Developers Guide.
