# Mobile development
Titanium can provide a development environment for third-party mobile platforms where a Software Development Kit (SDK) has been made available by the platform vendor. With this in mind, development with the following combinations of Operating Systems and SDKs are possible:
| Platform | macOS | Windows | Linux | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Android Development |  | | | |
| iOS Development | |  | | Due to Apple's license agreement, iOS applications may only be developed on Apple hardware. |
# Android
See Installing the Android SDK for detailed instructions.
Titanium requires the Android SDK Tools to be installed in order to allow you to develop Android applications.
The Android SDK Manager installer may be obtained from the Android Studio and SDK tools (opens new window) site.
# Required Android Packages
As of Titanium 9.0.0, the build system will automatically download the Android SDK platforms and tools needed.
For Titanium 8.x.x, you need to installed the following packages via the Android SDK Manager yourself:
| Package | Minimum Version |
|---|---|
| Android SDK Tools | Rev 28 |
| Android SDK Build-tools | Rev 23 |
| Android SDK Platform (API Level) | API Level 29 for Titanium 8.3.x API Level 28 for Titanium version older than 8.3.0 |
⚠️ Warning
Take caution before upgrading these packages, as changes to the way they work has broken the Titanium toolchain a number of times in the past. Although these problems are often beyond our control, we always do our utmost to fix them as soon as we are made aware of them.
With this in mind, it's important to only upgrade these packages between major projects, so that you have time to fix any problems that may result. Always consult the Android Tools Release Notes (opens new window) and Known Issues (opens new window) first, and refer to our Installation Troubleshooting guide to check whether there are any further actions that need to be taken to make the Titanium and the Android SDK compatible.
# Android SDK / Target Android platform
Each Titanium SDK supports building against a specific range of Android versions, as shown in the following table, and requires at least one of these versions to be installed. If you specify a android:targetSDKVersion in the tiapp.xml file of your project, you must specify one within the target min and max values. The minimum Android/SDK version column indicates the minimum version of Android that a device can run, which a Titanium application supports.

Most mobile device manufacturers have been licensed to use Google's enhanced API, which provides support for Maps and other functionality. If this is the case for your target devices, you will need to install the relevant Google packages, listed as Google APIs by Google Inc., Android API x... by the Android SDK Manager tool. In Studio, choose the SDKs with the naming format "Google APIs x.x" to use the enhanced APIs, or those without the "Google APIs" prefix otherwise.
Android SDK packages can be installed using the Android SDK Manager tool. See Installing the Android SDK for detailed instructions.
The default Android SDK can be configured using Studio's Preferences, and then selected per-project using the Run Configurations.
# Android Native Add-on Module Development on macOS
The Xcode command line tools are required to develop native Android add-on modules on macOS.
See Installing the iOS SDK: Installing Command Line Tools for detailed instructions.
# iOS
See Installing the iOS SDK for detailed instructions.
Titanium requires Xcode to be installed in order for you to develop iOS applications.
There are two ways to obtain Xcode, the application that installs and manages iOS SDKs:
Launch the App Store application, found in the
Applicationsfolder, and search for and install "Xcode" (includes the stable iOS and watchOS SDKs).Enroll with the Apple Developer website and browse the iOS Developer Center (opens new window) page to manually download the installer application (includes all previously-released iOS SDKs and new Beta versions).
Both of the above options are free of charge, although may require credit card details to be entered. Since 2016, you can also test your apps on your device using the free Apple developer program. If you wish to deploy your applications to the App Store for production, however, you will need to become a member of the iOS Developer Program, by way of an annual subscription charge of $99 at the time of writing.
# Xcode
To develop for iOS, Titanium requires Apple's Xcode suite of tools.
Each Titanium SDK supports a specific range of Xcode versions, shown in the table below.
