application (Qt Quick) - only 'Desktop' in Supported Platforms
-
@freenico You did not install Qt for Android. Go to https://www.qt.io/, download Qt online installer, start it and install Qt for Android.

@J-Hilk thank you. That's all I was hoping.
I know that forum's help is not supposed to the job for you; I am happy to go and roll my sleeves up if i get pointed to the right direction.
I will take a look at the online installer.
Thanks Jsulm -

The online installer allows you to select what qt version you want to install, I would not recommend installing everything.
I am there now. Why would you not recommend that?
Which box would you recommend I should tick?
It gives me three options:
Design Tools
Qt 6.2 for Desktop Development
Qt 6.2 for mobile developmentIs Qt 6.2 for mobile development a synonym of Qt for Android?

Because most probably you do not need everything. Qt binaries are quite big, so only install what you need.
"Qt 6.2 for mobile development" - is this expandable? I did not use recent installer, so not sure. -

no, it is not! there is just a thick-box ( i see after it would give the option to select components, maybe there i would have more options)

I haven't used the online installer since Qt6 was released, as a Qt5 commercial user I refuse to participate in the new commercial Qt6 Scam,
Anyway, it used to be that you could select almost all versions for all platforms. Since the good all days, it seems the installer got some love.
Nowadays you only see, by default, the latest version that you can actually use on your platform.
So Linux Desktop and Android mobile.
In that case, fell free to install both, if you want to develop for both.
Is Qt 6.2 for mobile development a synonym of Qt for Android?
under linux, yes

I guess it is safe to remove the previously installed Qt Creator?
Yes, you can uninstall the other one.

Yes!
now i see all the things you guys were asking me before
p.s:

a couple of things really,
- LTS and offline installer to become commercial-only
- Moving core features like TreeView to the QtMarketPlace for additional yearly subscriptions, or GPL
- Change from subscription to Qt overall, to subscription of individual modules.
Would I change over to Qt6 I would have to pay 3 times from what I'm currently paying. - "LTS" versions are commercial only now
- Community bug fixes aren't open sourced until after a year later
That said, if you're an open source user of Qt and willing to always update to the latest Qt6 version, absolutely nothing changes for you :D
now i see all the things you guys were asking me before
😜
but, I'm not sure why you don't have a "Multi-Abi" android version as well?
