The number of mobile operating systems or platforms supporting QT based app development keeps growing. Not for all of them QT is the standard framework for building apps, therefore it seems the Qt support can be categorized as follows:

  1. Qt and Qt based technologies (QML, QtQuick, QtMobility) are the recommended way for building mobile apps and part of the SDK.
  2. Qt or a subset of Qt is supported as a secondary way of developing or porting apps, and there is support for a subset of QT APIs within the SDK.
  3. Unofficial 3rd party or open source extensions enable development of Qt based apps for a platform.

Which mobile operating systems or SDKs do support development of apps using Qt in either of the above listed ways?

  • I'm going to add an answer with all the mobile operating systems and SDKs I'm aware of, feel free to add items to the list, or to correct my answer, since I'm not a Qt expert. – raju-bitter Dec 03 '12 at 01:17

  • The ports you mentioned (as demoed by Digia) are first party ones - or at least will be :) – leinir Dec 03 '12 at 10:14
  • The Android port of Qt 4.x called Necessitas - http://necessitas.kde.org/ - used to be a separate entity but was recently donated to the Qt project :) – leinir Dec 03 '12 at 10:15
  • Further, a version of Qt 4.x for iOS has been in the works for a while, and reportedly there are apps on the ios app store using it (though i don't know of any by name). https://twitter.com/Qt4iOS is their main contact. – leinir Dec 03 '12 at 10:17
  • Thanks, @leinir! I've updated my answer with the information from your comments. – raju-bitter Dec 03 '12 at 12:28
  • Added Ubuntu Phone to the list of mobile operating systems with full Qt support. Canonical announced Ubuntu Phone in early 2013. – raju-bitter Jan 10 '13 at 11:23
