Hi, I discovered another way to develop and share apps with friends. This technique distributes the debug version of the app. All you do is find the debug version, put into your free account at
www.dropbox.com, then download it with the dropbox app on your Android phone. The dropbox app, I accidentally discovered, will install the app with a few clicks and open it up for you also.
Then when you want a friend to get a copy of your app(s), you just give them access to that dropbox folder and theoretically they can get the app also. I have not tested the friend getting the app part yet, but it should work, not entirely sure.
It's a great workflow for development too because you don't need a cable tethering your computer to your phone. Please note that I have no connection with dropbox, and I am just a user of dropbox. Hopefully this will help some folks!
