    Can app be D/Led from my site rather than Market or Apple Store?

    Does the app have to be downloaded from the Android Market or Apple Store or can I place it on my own server for downloading??

    Android can be downloaded from your site.

    Apple can go through Cydia.

      For android, the APK files can be downloaded directly from your site. If you feel like experimenting, you could even charge for it outside the regular system or keep it for premium users for example.

      For iOS, if you wont be using apple's marketplace (and therefore not be subject to any limitations from it), you could instruct your users to add your repository to cydia (its easier than needing to fetch and update files manually)
