This page should collect FAQ specific for Qt for Android. The status of the project is summarized at http://wiki.qt.io/Qt5ForAndroid

This page is not focused on developers of Qt for Android, but on developers using Qt for Android.

Q: How to debug Qt applications on Android device?

A: See http://wiki.qt.io/How-to-debug-Qt-applications-on-Android-device

Q: How can I use Qt with Python on Android?

A: Search for PySide Project http://wiki.qt.io/Building_PySide_on_Android

Q: How can I disable hardware keys e.g. back or home?

A: If you don’t want the app to close, you need to handle the key event. Please note, that you have to handle the release event, not the press.

There is a way to leave handling the volume up/down buttons to android. Add the code to QtActivity to forward them to super.

  • Q: Closing application from Android does not call destructors *

A: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-33335
