The Ultimate Guide to Comparing Hybrid Mobile
Apps with Native Mobile Apps

• There is nothing to be surprised about the fact
  that dominance of the mobile apps has changed the
  way businesses perform their daily operations.
  However, companies struggle a lot when they need
  to decide about mobile apps for their businesses.
  They have to make a decision between Hybrid and
  Native app primarily. If you go back just two
  years, Native App Development was in its advanced
  stage, at the same time, hybrid development had
  just laid its foundation as well. You are
  mistaken if you think the debate between Hybrid
  vs Native is new as it began with the release of
  iPhone.

Of course, this later led to the mobile app
explosion. As with any other technologies, mobile
apps started off fairly simple, but over time,
they grew in number as well as complexity and
this is when businesses started to lure users and
maintained lead among competitors through
providing them better user experience in business
apps.
Now people hold on to their mobile devices every
minute of the day. And if the device is with you
constantly, it needs to be responsive and
reliable. It should respond quickly and give you
the answers you need as soon as possible. These
are the expectations of all mobile users. Hence,
businesses and developers must understand
customer experience over mobile.
No one has time to spend on bad user experience,
including customers and employees. As its proved
over and over again that user experience trumps
everything else when it comes to mobile. Then
its obvious to question the statement i.e. By
2018, approximately 50 of the apps uploaded to
the app store would be hybrid Gartner.
Hybrid apps do not perform equally well as native
apps. Still, there are numerous advantages to
using a hybrid app development, and that might
lead to significant increase of hybrid apps in
the Apple and Play Stores in coming times. No
matter how groundbreaking the intent behind your
mobile app, it will never succeed if people do
not enjoy using it. Thus customer experience on
Android App Development Services should be a
primary consideration.

User ExperienceCan Make Or Break The Success
Of The App

• Your app will never acquire success if users
  cannot accomplish a goal within your app. Today,
  mobile is everything for people. There are apps
  for everything dating, ride sharing, finance,
  gaming, insurance claims, music, email, etc. You
  just name it and its probably already available
  for download. People interact with businesses
  through their mobile apps. Eight years after the
  release of the first iPhone we simply cannot
  imagine a world without Android or Apple devices
  and their companion mobile applications.

• Perhaps the most critical choice an organization
  must make before entering the world of Mobile App
  Development is regarding the approach they wish
  to take when building a mobile app. Would you
  like to amaze and tempt your users by building an
  entirely native application that integrates into
  the platform of their choice (Android or iOS Apps
  Development)? Or would you say you are keener on
  adopting a Minimum Viable Product approach and
  rapidly building up a hybrid application which
  can be released across platforms? Though
  potentially easier to build and maintain, this
  second strategy is likely to result in a less
  than ideal user experience with sub-par
  performance.

• Before entering the world of mobile apps
  development you should decide the approach to
  takeHybridor Native?
• A lot has been discussed about Native vs Hybrid
  topic. Even some believe the war between them is
  already over and that most apps are already
  hybrid. But in this article, we will discuss such
  factors that are impacted by each of the two
  approaches such as speed to market, performance,
  user experience, release cycles, and other points
  that shouldnt be ignored. By looking at the key
  differences between the two development
  approaches, we will try to decide which framework
  will make sense in certain situations.

Native and Hybrid apps A quick overview

• What is Native App?
• When you send text messages, set reminders, or
  take pictures using devices default apps or use
  devices music app, you interact with native
  apps. A native app is an application developed
  particularly for a mobile operating system.
  Native apps are developed within a mature
  ecosystem keeping in view all the technical and
  user experience guidelines of the OS. In that
  way, native apps utilize the built-in
  capabilities of the devices, thus offering better
  and consistent look, feel and in-app interaction
  along with faster performance.

8

• What is Hybrid App?
• Hybrid apps are rendered as web apps and packaged
  into a native wrapper. They look and feel like
  native applications, but ultimately outside of
  the basic frame of the application they are web
  apps, thus causing performance issues. Such
  issues occur due to device hardware, fragmented
  systems, and different device speeds.
• In comparison to native apps, hybrid apps were
  relatively slower and Apple Store has rejected
  upload of a number of hybrid applications.
• Here it is important and interesting to discuss
  that after such numerous rejections why and how
  Hybrid Apps has maintained its presence in the
  market? Lets look into the reasons

9

• Time To Market?
• When you decide to build a mobile app, either you
  want to catch up with competitors or identified a
  business opportunity that previously was
  untapped. The outcome cannot be certain, but you
  wish to launch your app ASAP. When it comes to
  picking Mobile Application Development Services,
  you must approach considering certain factors.
  Both, Hybrid as well as native approaches can get
  the job done for your business, but you must be
  particular about your specific requirements and
  aims. There can be many cases where you may find
  going native makes sense whilst there are several
  cases where hybrid proves its worth. Lets
  embrace widely common but significant scenarios
  mostly businesses are stuck with while making a
  decision between native or hybrid

10

• Needs that lean toward a native solution
• Budget plans arent extremely tight, or if it is
  youre glad to target, such as camera,
  microphone, compass, accelerometer and swipe
  gestures.
• You value user experience and performance over
  all else. Taking advantage of native features
  offers a considerably more seamless, intuitive
  experience for the end client.
• Budget plans arent much tight, or if it is, it
  still doesnt bother you to target a smaller
  audience however with an all the more captivating
  product.
• You anticipate developing a product with complex
  functionality.
• You anticipate growing the products breadth of
  functionality in later releases.

11

• Needs that lean toward a hybrid solution
• Youre endeavoring to collect as much user
  feedback as possible by focusing on a large
  audience.
• You have a smaller budget.
• You dont care too much about releasing a not so
  refined product.
• You have demanding time to market requirements
  and need to launch as soon as possible.
• Your application isnt excessively unpredictable
  (now and future states).
• Your app doesnt depend on offline capabilities
• Essentially, native apps offer better experience
  for the end user, but hybrid apps are a good
  alternative if youre worried about budget and
  timing regardless of anything else.

12

• How Important Is The Performance Of An App For
  Your Company?
• App performance is a key driver of app success.
  Today, it is harder than ever to get users
  attention especially on mobile. An application
  has thousands of competitors on Apple or Play
  Store. A user downloads an app to make their
  lives easier. And the top reason they abandoned
  apps is that they lose interest.
• For instance within m-commerce app, a user looks
  for the seamless shopping experience and hence
  moves ahead with the length of interaction across
  six stages from launching an app, searching for
  an item, getting the product details, adding to
  the wish list, checking the product review and
  then make payment. Throughout the process, a user
  expects ease of navigation, speed, and
  reliability.
• If a business failed in delivering such smooth
  digital experience, a user will delete or
  uninstall an app because of performance issues.
  They not only lose interest in interaction with a
  mobile app but also with brick-mortar shops
  around, all because of poor app performance. Thus
  your endgame of app development strategy
  shouldnt be just app downloads, but to make sure
  those downloads result in sustained app usage.

13

• Its difficult enough to get app downloads, but
  its even harder to keep users around
• 84 of the users consider performance to be very
  important and this is the biggest pick out for
  the debate between native vs Hybrid App
  Development. Performance is the first-ever
  criteria where native apps win hands down. Even
  having all the positives associated with hybrid
  app development, it was not able to beat native
  apps in terms of speed, reliability, and
  security.
• Why Native?
• A native application can easily load the
  contents, structure and other visual elements and
  provide a seamless experience in all. If you are
  looking for some high-speed application like
  m-commerce or iPhone Game Development, then a
  native app is the way to choose. Native apps get
  designed or developed for some specific operating
  systems and they provide great performance.
  Additionally, now it renders trendy look and
  feels all due to improved development ecosystem.
  That way it enables users to connect easily and
  quickly to the icons and button.

14
Why Hybrid?

• Though the hybrid apps are a bit slower than
  Native Apps, these are best if you aim to develop
  business professional services apps. Business
  professional services apps do not likely require
  a more graphical and platform specific needs like
  games or animated apps. Hence, it wouldnt bother
  user while their interaction with content over
  the apps and ensure seamless digital interaction.
• User Experience A Critical Differentiator In
  The Native Vs. Hybrid Debate

15
iPhone App Developer

• A poor user experience turns into quick
  switching. Users are likely to move towards the
  next best in the list in less than a minute.
  Users are not interested in learning features
  that are application specific. Indeed they switch
  to apps having features that are easy and
  familiar from interactivity, usability and
  responsiveness aspects.
• Whether you go with native or hybrid app, your
  aim should be keeping the user experience
  seamless and address all aspects of the app

16

• More Reason Why Native?
• When it comes to developing gaming app, iPhone
  App Developer needs to detail out the color,
  animation, typography as well as interactivity
  for the app. It is quite difficult to do these
  things in a hybrid. There are several different
  style guidelines for native and hybrid apps. That
  makes it tough to give the user experience needed
  for gaming apps with hybrid technologies. For an
  app that is native to the platform, accessing the
  native features and hardware becomes easy. Though
  native apps can quickly access native features
  like contacts, camera, maps, etc it is slightly
  difficult for the hybrid app that in general
  hinder the user experience in turn.
• More Reasons Why Hybrid?
• On the other hand, a hybrid application is
  platform agnostic and that makes it appealing
  over native apps. With hybrid apps, developers
  need to build an app once and can release it
  across multiple platforms. One UI nice and
  simple. In addition to this, you do not have to
  maintain two different code bases of iPhone app
  that is written in Swift or Objective-C while
  Android apps are written in Java. That means
  hybrid apps are, one, easier to build two, take
  less time to market, and three, maintain one code
  base.

• 5 Questions To Ask Before You Decide
• Does your app require access to native features?
  For example Camera, Phone contacts, SMS, Hardware
  device buttons, Map, Push notifications, etc
• How fast do you need to get this out to market?
• What budget do you have to play with?
• How frequent is your update cycle? What levels of
  functionality do you want to add in these
  updates?
• How important is user experience to you? If
  youre in a competitive marketplace, we would
  definitely recommend prioritizing the user
  experience.

18

• Do You Really Need To Build An App To Work On
  Both Platforms Right Away?
• Companies misunderstood the concept of being
  available on mobile. They think that their
  companys app should be available for both
  Android and iOS platforms. Though companies have
  benefits of being present on both platforms, they
  need to understand do they really need to be on
  both platforms Right Away? Both native and hybrid
  are there to fulfill the needs and preferences of
  end users, developers, and businesses.
• While there are distinct and convincing
  advantages of each, the choice to go native or
  hybrid ought to be a strategic one, contemplating
  your product roadmap, overall business objectives
  and end-user experience.
• What have been your experiences with native vs
  hybrid applications?
