Native are the most common type of mobile applications. They are built for use in a single particular platform or device, such as Android, and iOS, and are written in languages that the platform accepts. For example, Java or Kotlin for native Android apps, and Swift and Objective-C for native iOS apps. The main advantage of native apps is they give the best performance you can possibly get from the mobile phone, including fast and fluid animations as well as full access to phone hardware, multi touch support and the latest APIs.

Native app development is far from easy. There are different guidelines for each platform thay developers need to follow as they differ in typhography, graphic styles, visual effects, gestures, data entry, etc. Code must be written specifically for each platform as well. The code for the same application in one platform will have to be largely rewritten with little able to be shared for another platform. The logic may be the same, but the language, APIs, and the development process is completely different, hence the need of mobile developer specialized in each specific platform.

Native mobile application excels Hybrid in term of speed, considering that it has been optimized for each respective platforms. With so many Android devices available in the market with different screen sizes, only through native application development does layout on each size can be adjusted.

React Native also allows developers to build authentic native iOS and Android apps with one code database. Using React Native, developers can create a mobile application that is identical to a product developed using either Objective-C or Java. React Native, however, is written in JavaScript and React.

 

Flutter App Development

Flutter helps developers to develop Android and iOS applications and build highly-interactive native interface on them with a single code database. Flutter, that uses Dart to develop application, is known for its productivity as it is able to speed up the entire app development process that further assists the developers to localize their apps. This helps the apps in reaching a wider base of audience as they can be used globally as well.
