Understanding Mobile Application Native, Hybrid or Web

If you want to develop a mobile app for you business, there are many factors that play an important role such as mobile strategy, team’s development skills, required device functionality, the importance of security, offline capability, interoperability, etc. Native and hybrid apps are installed in an app store, whereas web apps are mobile-optimized webpages that look like an app. Both hybrid and web apps render HTML web pages, but hybrid apps use app-embedded browsers to do that.

  2. Introduction to Mobile Application? A mobile app is a software application designed and developed for use on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets rather than desktop or laptop computers. Mobile applications frequently serve to provide users with similar services to those accessed on PCs.

  3. Types Of Mobile Applications As a company involved in the development of mobile apps, Unifunds would like to explain that there are many different types of mobile apps. Regular end users will rarely hear any other term than ‘mobile apps’, but for developers, there are three types of mobile apps. • Native App • Hybrid App • Web App

  4. Native App A native app is an application program that has been developed for a specific platform or mobile device and is installed directly onto the device itself. A native app is developed specifically for a mobile operating system (think Objective-C or Swift for iOS vs. Java for Android). Users of native apps usually download them via app stores online or the app marketplace, such as the Apple App Store, the Google Play store and so on. Advantages: The greatest aspect of native apps lies in their sheer power. Unlike HTML5, it is easy for a native app to make use of a mobile device’s built-in hardware and software features. Another notable asset is that native apps can be used offline. While users are becoming increasingly connected to their networks at all times, there are still many moments where mobile devices will be used offline.

  5. Native App • Disadvantages: • more costly to build • more costly to maintain • narrow/limited audience • maintaining multiple “versions” of the application across the various mobile device operating systems is labour intensive

  6. Hybrid Apps A Hybrid App is essentially an application which is developed using “open web” technologies and then packaged up into a fully native application. So a programmer should already be fluent in these open web scripts, which are then tailored for specific devices. Advantages: The greatest aspect of native apps lies in their sheer power. Unlike HTML5, it is easy for a native app to make use of a mobile device’s built-in hardware and software features. Another notable asset is that native apps can be used offline. While users are becoming increasingly connected to their networks at all times, there are still many moments where mobile devices will be used offline.

  7. Hybrid Apps • Disadvantages: • Slightly lower performance with the rendering of web pages, data access across multiple layers, etc. • Limited UX experience, compared to native UI • Security concerns • Perhaps not 100% as slick as a fully native application • Potential for issues with debugging across various platforms as not writing pure "native" codeEstimate Ballpark Costs

  8. Web Apps Web apps are not real applications; they are really websites that, in many ways, look and feel like native applications, but are not implemented as such. They are run by a browser and typically written in HTML5. Users first access them as they would access any web page: they navigate to a special URL and then have the option of “installing” them on their home screen by creating a bookmark to that page. • Advantages: • Web apps are able to run reasonably well on any mobile web browser, from full-featured browsers available in iPhones and Android devices to the mid-range browsers on Blackberry phones. • This type of app is ideal when the purpose is simply to make content or functionality available on mobile devices. • The apps use a single common code base, which makes it easy to update and maintain. Also, updates and modifications are made directly to the web server without any user intervention. • Mobile web apps utilize ‘open web’ technologies, meaning they are less costly to develop.

  9. Hybrid Apps • Disadvantages: • These apps don’t have access to the native functionality. • Performance doesn’t match with native apps. • These apps don’t work in offline. Actually works in offline mode, but that doesn’t match what native apps provide. • Slower performance • Can only be distributed via the web - no App Store distribution network.
