Future Platform Support

Support is planned (but no release date has been set) for Android.

We are monitoring the Apple iOS platform, but it is not currently clear that it makes sense to develop a dynamic application development tool for this platform (due to restrictions imposed by the environment). A new product with reduced functionality may be required.
