    Hi; I tried Qt Android with MSVC but I did not succeed. I installed MSVC 2013 with Visual Studio 2013 and it created only Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Compiler for Desktop but it did not create Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Compiler for Android. Actually can I develop android Qt with MSVC? Thanks.

      You should install Qt creator as IDE and Android package through maintenance tool.
      There are some helpful documents for development with Android.

      Vote the answer(s) that helped you to solve your issue(s)

        No, you can't. Microsoft C++ compiler can only generate binaries for x86/x86_64.
        You need the NDK which contains a compiler which can generate ARM binaries for Android.
