When getting started on developing a mobile app, it’s easy to get carried away thinking about how your app will look and function, what kind of features it’ll offer, and the overall value you imagine it bringing to your users.
But one of the first things you should be thinking about is what are the different types of mobile apps available and which one you should build.
There are native apps, hybrid apps, web apps, and progressive web apps.
When you hear the term “native app”, this simply means that the mobile application was built for a specific operating system (OS).
Most mobile devices use either iOS or Android OS. So creating an app that’s native to one of these systems means making the most of the device’s functionalities.
Web apps are essentially web-based applications, meaning they are accessed via a web browser, like Chrome, Safari, and so on. All a user needs is an internet connection and the url to enter in their browser to access the app.
Hybrid apps are a mix of web app and native app technology, and so they offer the best of both worlds.
Choosing the right type is crucial to bringing your dream app to life, so think carefully about the decision.
In this video, we’ll bring you up to speed on the different types of mobile app development, the technology behind them, and how to make the right choice.
