can i install it to my mobile? I thought it would be as easy as just exporting as .apk file and loading through drop box or is this wrong?

Hi BobC22, I'm guessing you're talking about an Android app? You should be able to upload your app to the internet somewhere and browse to it with your Android device to install it. See: http://lifehacker.com/5593646/use-dropbox-to-easily-install-non+market-android-apps

I find it easiest to email the apk to my device, the email automatically includes a nice and easy install button!

You'll need to make sure your phone is set to run non-Android market apps. I forget exactly where this setting is.
