 ===== Conclusion ===== ===== Conclusion =====
 +\\
 +
 +During the developing of the application we found out that in Qt platform is easier to make more complex applications. For example connecting objects events you can use slots and signals which we believe is a very good concept that makes your work easier.
 +Using the mobility package we noticed that is easy to read the sensors. The only problem that we had at the beginning was that we didn’t know how to declare the mobility API in the project file.
 +\\
 +\\
 +Also the simulation is very useful when developing, like this you do not need to have the device for testing purpose. But also there is a drawback because there are functions that do not work in all the environments. For example the function isFinished() of QSound class.
 +Because the software doesn’t run the same in all the environments, we also noticed other problems, for example on Symbian, our microphone implementation does not work.
 +\\
 +\\
 +The final conclusion is that Qt is a powerful platform that helps the developer create software in a easier manner. Even though we found some problems, we believe that in time everything will run properly. In the future we predict that the platform will be used in a larger extent.
