You can use C++ in Visual Studio to build Windows Desktop apps, Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps, and Linux apps. And now, you can build C++ apps for Android and iOS. The **Mobile development with C++** workload is an installable set of components in Visual Studio. It includes cross-platform iOS, Android, and UWP Visual Studio templates. The workload installs the cross-platform tools and SDKs you need to get started quickly. You won't have to locate, download, and configure them yourself. You can use these tools in Visual Studio to easily create, edit, debug, and test your cross-platform projects.

You don't have to install all the third-party dependencies when you install the **Mobile development with C++** workload (or in Visual Studio 2015, the Visual C++ Mobile Development option). Install them later by using the steps in [Install the tools](#install-the-tools). The Visual Studio Installer is updated regularly to install the latest third-party components. Use it to install updated SDKs and NDKs. You can also install or update them independently of Visual Studio.

You can run the SDK Manager app in the Android SDK directory again to update the SDK. And, to install optional tools and additional API levels. Updates may fail to install unless you use **Run as administrator** to run the SDK Manager app. If you have problems building an Android app, check the SDK Manager for updates to your installed SDKs.
