is there a way to build meteor mobile app from build.phonegap.com?

I am new to meteor. I developed mobile application from meteor. Now I wish to build that app from build.phonegap.com site. I feel build.phonegap is easy instead of meteor build

To put it short its not possible to build an app using the phonegap build service.

The reason for this is meteor build does not exclusively build the apk. meteor build also takes your project and builds it up into what would be the /www directory in your phonegap project.

Secondly Meteor doesn't use the original phonegap/cordova build. There is a modification to phonegap so the files in /www are served using an on-device HTTP server at http://meteor.local. This is one of the reasons its not available on WP8, Blackberry, etc. The local webserver sorts out some issues related to routing.

So you would need to use meteor build to build your app.
