It is intended as a platform-neutral Contest. Applications can be developed for, but not limited to, Android, iOS, Windows Phone, Blackberry OS 10 and HTML5.</p><p style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); ">The competition consists of three phases. First you submit your app idea, and if invited to proceed, you submit your app for evaluation and selection as Finalists. Only Finalists advance to enter the third and last phase of selecting the three top winners. More details about the requirements and rules for the three phases of this competition should be carefully read in the<b><a href="http://www.sigmobile.org/mobicom/2013/AppCompetitionv2_2.pdf">competition rules document.</a></b></p><p style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); ">All applications must be demonstrated on real devices.
