Tackle the Challenges of Native Mobile Application Development

Native development for mobile apps can be challenging due to different languages, libraries, tools, and skills. Qt addresses these issues by enabling cross-platform development from a single codebase, ensuring native performance, and providing access to platform-specific features.

Re-Usable Components Across Platforms

Eliminate the need to keep various code bases in sync.

Use the same business logic, backend, and toolset in your multiplatform app development. Re-use both UI components and core functionality, and establish a clear separation between the frontend and backend.

Easily learn Qt's fully declarative UI language, QML, and use it as the one UI language across all platforms.

Deploy your Qt-powered software across desktop and embedded targets as well as the Android and iOS mobile platforms, automatically adapting styles and adding mobile-specific elements only where needed.

COMBINE 2D, 3D & GRAPHS

Add Some Flare to Your Mobile App

All the ready-made, customizable Qt Framework components can be easily re-used in your mobile app development with minimal re-work. This includes:

Basic controls & effects,
Advanced 2D & 3D graphics and graphs,
Secure networking, connectivity, & data handling.

Qt allows to edit, preview, and run 2D and 3D elements in the same language and technology, and create mobile apps that work seamlessly across multiple mobile platforms.

FOR EXISTING ANDROID APPS

Add 3D & Graphs to Native Android Apps

Typically, adding 3D graphics to enhance your UI, or graphs to visualize data, is not easy in native Android applications. However, Qt allows adding these elements also into native mobile applications written with Kotlin and Java, making use of the powerful Qt Quick and QML capabilities.

EASY PROTOTYPING

Iterate Smoothly from Design to Testing

Iterate throughout the product development cycle with synergies from Qt Group's offering.

Create prototypes in seconds with Qt’s design tools for ready-made QML code, making use of its multiplatform adaptability also for mobile app development.

Benefit from multiplatform UI testing with object introspection using Squish, even in the face of product evolution.

Figma to Qt - in Public Beta

Bring embedded UI designs to live and ensure they work on the real product. Reduce iterations and make it easy for designers and developers to collaborate.

Turn Figma Design into Products

Squish

Automate UI testing across all platforms. Write your tests once and run them across desktop and mobile platforms without rewriting or switching tools.

MULTI-SCREEN & FOLDABLE PHONES

Mobile Apps also for the Foldables

Many multiplatform mobile apps still don’t use the potential that flippable and foldable phones provide.

Qt applications using Qt Quick adapt to the target screen, providing out-of-the-box:

Full support for resizing and aspect ratio changes,
Ability to react to screen changes, such as folds or hinges,
Continuous improvements, such as the FlexboxLayout as one of the latest examples.

Your application can more than just work on foldables. With Qt, you can utilize the full potential of multi-screen and foldable phones, often with zero re-work.

Licensing for Mobile Development

Qt comes with Dual Licensing, which includes both commercial and open source options. To build a proprietary mobile application, you need the Commercial Qt license, within which Qt for Application Development is sufficient for pure mobile and desktop app development.
