Did you know that users spend more than 90% of smartphone time on different apps?

In fact, an average person would check their phones every 10 minutes.

Aren’t these numbers striking?

We are sure that you are already mapping the importance of mobile apps in this era. Today, there are two major models used to develop state-of-art mobile apps: hybrid development and native development. Both native and hybrid app development methods have a huge user base.

However, even with all this popularity, we need to make an informed choice. In mobile app development, our success is a product of the decisions we make. Hence, we have discussed the differences between hybrid and native app development.

Native Mobile App Development 

Native mobile app development is a process of creating specific applications for different operating systems. For example, creating an iOS app and an Android app separately. Therefore, when you are using native mobile app development, you need to choose one operating system, such as:

  • Android
  • iOS

It is necessary to remember that you need to create separate apps and upload them differently if you need both Android and iOS.

Usually, you will find developers using Swift languages or Objective-C for iOS and Kotlin or JAVA for Android.

Advantages of Native Mobile App Development 

Speed And Performance

The main reason why many companies still use native mobile app development is that these are easy on the memory of the device. Therefore, the final speed and performance of native apps are better.

However, this is not to say that hybrid applications are any less. You get various solutions to improve the speed and performance of these apps as well.

User Experience And Functionality

Since native mobile apps are for one specific OS, they can be better customized. It naturally makes sense to use this type of development for highly customized applications. This includes custom gestures, screens, custom navigation, intuitive mas, and common buttons like search, etc.

Native apps also help sync and manage the aspect ratio, which offers improved app graphics.

Easier Development Process

When you experience bugs in an application, your team may have to spend time eliminating these issues during the development phase. However, an on-premise application has fewer issues, as it is not relying on different cross-platform software like Cordova. You can complete the development process early.  

Disadvantages of Native Mobile App Development

There Is No Flexibility

It is widely believed that native application development is not flexible. The process requires your team to create the code for a single platform and use a different tech stack for the other. This is why companies using native mobile app development hire different teams, which offers them tailored and detailed results.

Development Is More Expensive 

During native app development, you can save time in fixing issues, but the entire mobile app development is expensive and complicated. You may choose a physical model, and the hourly wages would cost you too much.

Additionally, you have to also consider the cost of local development, increase in developer pricing/salary, and maintenance of the app. From development to upgrades, native app development requires both more money and time.

Not Suitable For Start-Ups 

As we have already discussed, native app development is not flexible, it requires more time and money, this type of model is not suitable for start-ups or small businesses. Both affordability and flexibility levels of native apps don’t align with the requirements of a start-up.

Hybrid Mobile App Development

Hybrid mobile app development helps you use one token for different operating systems, such as Android and iOS. It provides a blend of web features and native app functionalities. Any business that is looking to expand its functioning and business operations can use native app development to run one app on different operating systems. This helps engage users in a unified manner regardless of the platform being used.

Benefits Of Hybrid App Development: Difference Between Hybrid and Native Apps

Enhanced UX/UI

Hybrid mobile app development offers the benefits of both web and native apps. This means you get a flawless and consistent user experience across both Android and iOS. Hybrid apps have a lightweight UI that ensures smooth graphic and content loading. Your apps also adjust to different screen sizes quickly, offering smooth data flow as well. Overall, hybrid apps create an advanced user experience that increases your chances of getting the app approved in respective app stores.  

Wider Market Access

Hybrid apps are just perfect when you need to offer solutions for different platforms. We are operating in a competitive landscape, and here if you need to connect with a large user base, hybrid apps are cost-effective and comprehensively profitable for the business.

Shorter Development Timeframe

There’s no doubt that hybrid apps can be developed faster. There’s just one code base for different operating systems, which is why hybrid apps have a shorter timeframe for development.

It is also amazing that you can use your web tools to eliminate making a different database for every platform. Just use HTML or JavaScript to create an application for every platform.

Easy to Maintain

With hybrid development, you get seamless maintenance. In native apps, your team needs to release and manage different upgraded versions of the app for every specific platform. Hybrid apps allow easy maintenance by eliminating versioning and updating apps in real-time.

Cost-effective

It is obvious that hybrid mobile app development is cost-effective, as you are using the same app for different platforms. In native applications, your mobile app development services may incur a higher charge. But, hybrid apps are also published and created quickly, which additionally saves you money.

Performance boost

Hybrid applications are not behind in the performance race too. Similar to native applications, hybrid apps also allow quick loading and improved performances. These apps don’t rely on the network connection, which offers better performance overall.

Conclusion

Whether you want to develop a native or hybrid application for your organization, evaluate your business needs first. We have already discussed that both native and hybrid apps are right for different environments. However, using hybrid apps for cross-platform development is surfacing as the new go-to option for many businesses. It is quick, flexible, and simply amazing.
