Question: plans to go cross-platform?

[rvalitov]

First of all, thank you for a great work! I think today people use mobile devices rather than computers, so SyncPlay app is a must! I don't understand why the officials don't go this way.

There are many tools for cross-platform development. Do you plan to use them, so you can share and distribute your core code not just for Android, but also for iOS?

I'm not sure if cross platform framework will work for this type of application since it requires tighter integration with a media player to grab play states etc.

Do you have a specific tool in mind that I could look into?

I'm personally familiar with Xamarin as a part of Visual Studio (free edition). It does not have cross-platform media player out of the box, but there are 3rd-party plugins for cross-platform media players, for example:

• https://github.com/adamfisher/Xamarin.Forms.VideoPlayer
• https://github.com/martijn00/XamarinMediaManager

Thanks I'll take a look into it. The code definitely needs a rewrite anyway.

Can I email you privately? I have one question/proposal to discuss.
