  1. Mobile App Development Companies often turn to us for help

    in developing their own mobile application. However, the first question is: "Are you interested in a native or hybrid application?" leads them into a stupor.

  3. Native App Development The process to develop apps or software

    that need to be operated on specific devices and mobile app platforms such as Android and iOS. With native app development, developers rely on the native-to- the-operating-system programming language to craft apps that fit one particular platform- may it be desktops, smart TVs, smartphones, or any other advanced gadgets being used in the digital space.
  4. Native Apps Development Benefits of Due to its high development

    speed and cost-effective nature, native applications are preferred by startups. High Speed These apps are compiled with core programming languages and APIs which makes native apps more efficient. Utmost Performance Since native apps are built for a specific OS, they adhere to the guidelines which ensure an improved experience that perfectly aligns with a particular operating system in all terms. More Intuitive & Interactive This offline support functionality in native apps is essential for app users residing in low internet connectivity areas, staying in remote areas, or have got limited data availability. Offline Functionality Since native apps have one codebase and don’t rely on cross-platform tools, they come up with minimal occurrence of bugs. Minimized Scope of Bugs Native app development relies on different browsers and technologies like HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS and ensures thorough data protection on the user’s end. Enhanced Security
  5. Since native mobile apps are language-specific, it becomes challenging to

    find developers who can develop native apps back-to- back. Needs More Skills and Talent If native apps are to be built for iOS and Android separately, you’ll have to do the coding part and develop the apps for both the mobile operating systems. No Code Reusability Native app development comes up with heavy maintenance costs which is even more than the actual development costs. High Maintenance Cons of Native App Development
  6. Businesses into 3D games and animations. Need to code specifically

    for one platform. Need to add device-specific functionalities like GPS, camera, and so on. Your target audience will be using your app for the first time and you plan to impress them with the best possible app experience. You are planning to grab a wide base of DAUs and target VC investors for product funding and develop an easy-to-learn yet intuitive app. When to Consider Developing a Native App?
  7. Benefits of Hybrid Apps Hybrid application development has a lightweight

    hybrid app UI that enables super-fast loading of graphics and content. Improved UI/UX A hybrid app development framework is the ideal choice to go for as it enables rapid development and launch of the app in the market comparatively at an early stage. Rapid Time to Market Since the hybrid apps are solely based on web technology, it is simple to maintain hybrid apps as compared to native and cross- platform apps that have complex coding. Easy Maintenance Hybrid app development frameworks enable developers to develop a single version and utilize the same for multiple platforms. Minimized Cost Backed with Ease of Development
  8. Functionality Limitations There are features that are specific to a

    particular operating system that don’t work perfectly on other systems, like some Android-specific functionalities might not work on iOS devices. Slow Performance If you compare the performance of a native app with a hybrid app, both having the same functionalities, then the performance of the native app will be slightly faster. No Offline Support Hybrid applications don’t offer offline support like native apps. Users need to wait for an Internet connection to access the app’s functionalities. Cons of Hybrid App Development
  9. 01 02 03 04 05 You are targeting a broader

    audience that uses the app on web and mobile devices. You wish to avail the device’s native features like GPS, camera, and so on. You plan to distribute a web app throughout app stores. Minimum Viable Product (MVP) for testing the project idea. Planning to operate the app seamlessly across different platforms and don’t have sufficient time to build a cross- platform solution. When to Consider Developing a Hybrid App?
  10. 60% Cross Platform App Cross-platform frameworks operate on the agenda

    to develop shareable and reusable code for building apps for different OS. Writing code once and reusing the same on multiple platforms helps in minimizing the development costs and efforts. Hassle-free implementation Robust functionality
  11. D C B A A B C D Benefits of

    Cross-platform Apps Hassle-free & Rapid Development This is where a cross-platform app development framework gains a competitive edge over other alternatives. Great Product Maintenance As there is only one codebase, it becomes quite easy to test and deploy fixes and upgrades and experience higher accuracy and superior quality mobile applications. Reduced Cost Cross-platform app development framework holds the potential of supporting all sorts of platforms and ensures wider market reach at a global level with increased brand popularity of startup businesses that seek rapid traction in the market. Code Reusability When it comes to cross-platform apps, developers need not write unique code every time for each operating system. A common codebase can be used for transferring code to different platforms. Cross-platform App Development
  12. Difficult integrations Less flexibility Long wait for update integration Complicated

    development lifecycle There is the other side of the coin too because cross- platform app development poses its own share of challenges ranging from UI/UX problems to speed issues. Cons of Cross-platform Apps
  13. 01 02 03 04 You have to release a mobile

    application on different platforms with limited budget, time, and resources. When to Consider Building a Cross-platform App? You need to target iOS and Android apps users both. You need faster app development. The app isn’t complex and doesn’t need functionalities which vary much between the platforms.
