If you're unsure about the dozens of different ways to disturbute mobile software, start by reading / learning all you can about all the different options.

But after trying in different ways, I do not get it. I just want to upload to my server the app and provide the people a url where they can download the application. How I can do this? thank you very much! Comments sorry David, I do not want abuse your kindness. But after trying in different ways, I do not get it.

For Android, first use the Export Application tool in Eclipse. It will produce a file called yourappname.apk. Place this .apk file on your server. Android devices that visit the url to your .apk file can install your application. End users will need to adjust a setting in their devices to 'allow non market apps' Comments Don't be sorry... it's OK. For iOS this isn't possible.

You'll need an Apple Developer account to do this. You do not need a seperate Apple Dev. account for each app. One account can post as many apps to the app store as needed. Comments Yup...
