NATIVE APPS VS. HYBRID APPS

Table of Contents

Build fire says that the average person uses 9 mobile apps per day and 30 apps per month.

 

  • According to Statista, by 2025, mobile apps are expected to forge revenue of more than 613 billion USD.
  • The two leading companies, Google and Apple, had 3.5 million apps in Google Play and 2.2 million apps in the Apple store in the first quarter of 2021.

 

While building an app, you should consider its classification and go for what suits your project requirement. Comprehending the distinction between native and hybrid apps can be the first step you should take!

 

What are native apps?

Native mobile apps are smartphone applications developed in a specific programming language. These languages can be Objective C for iOS or Java for Android operating systems.

 

Native developers require SDK (Software Development Kit) and an IDE (Integrated Development Environment). These apps are known for fast performance and high reliability. They can also access the phone’s various features, like GPS, camera, address book, etc.

 

Benefits

 

  1. Powerful performance: 

To deliver value to the customers, it is essential to have apps with sound performance. Native apps are speedy and responsive, as they are designed and optimized for a specific platform. The customization also makes these apps very powerful.

 

  1. Great user experience: 

In order to create and maintain the brand, native apps offer a fast and smooth user experience. They result in a better user experience, gesture recognition, animations effects, etc.

 

  1. Security at its best!:

Native apps are reliable and secure. Building a native mobile app is an excellent way to guarantee your users trustworthy data protection.

 

Examples: Facebook, WhatsApp

 

What are hybrid apps?

A hybrid app is the amalgamation of web applications designed for web browsers and native applications developed for a particular operating system. They are designed and coded to be useful on multiple platforms.

 

Hybrid apps have a back-end code encased in a native container. The following are the benefits of hybrid app development.

 

Benefits

  1. Wide market reach:

Hybrid apps are perfect for targeting multiple platforms with one solution. With vast competition in the market, it is essential to have a system that is both lucrative and cost-effective.

 

  1. Less development time:

Hybrid apps have only one codebase. Therefore it takes less time to develop the app even for all platforms. It, in turn, reduces the development time of the total project.

 

  1. Cost savior: 

As development time is less and coding is not very complicated, the total cost of developing hybrid apps is less. Therefore, this lowers overall project costs.

 

Examples: Uber, Instagram, Wikipedia

 

Native apps vs. hybrid apps

While choosing an app development type, you need to consider the following points and gauge your project requirements.

 

Time frame

Native apps as fast but require much more time to develop and market. Hybrid apps, in that case, are slower than native apps and has faster to market. So, depending upon your app customization and timeframe needs, you can choose the type.

 

Development process

The development of native apps involves complex coding. Comparatively, the development of hybrid apps less complicated coding. In hybrid apps, once the code is written, it can be deployed to other platforms.

 

For both types, you need to have skilled developers to make your project successful. Team Orion comprises expert developers, be it any project, any domain, or any scale.

 

Maintenance

To maintain native apps, a developer needs to explore all the information and observe changes in the latest version. After analyzing this, it can be deployed to the app store. While in hybrid apps, this process is easy and requires fewer efforts, and can be performed many times without any trouble. When you connect with Orion’s expertise, you even get round-the-year support.

 

Customer experience

The most important thing to consider before developing any app is user experience. Undoubtedly, native apps have a richer and more attractive user experience than hybrid apps. But a well-known app, Uber, is a hybrid app and has quite good performance. Ultimately, it is all about how your users find it!

 

May the best one win!

Both native and hybrid applications have their own sets of pros and cons. However, you should choose the one that fulfills your project requirements.
