  1. What are the types of Apps and their advantages and disadvantages? Many start-ups today are app based. The entrepreneurs may be unaware of the types of applications that are there in the market. If you are an entrepreneur or just a normal business trying to be more relevant in today’s time, you may want to make an app for your business. You may not understand the technical terms related to app designing. This blog post helps you in understanding the types of web applications that are existing and what advantages or disadvantages they may pose to their business. This post will help you to make an informed decision regarding the type of application that you need to develop for your business. At the end of the post, I have listed a number of ​mobile app development companies that will help you to develop an application for your business. This post talks about the types of applications that can be used by a business and the advantages and disadvantages that come along with it. There are three main types of applications – Native Apps, Web Apps and Hybrid Apps. They are explained in detail below:

  2. Native Apps: The applications which are developed for a single operating system are called ‘native apps’. So, an app developed for iOS software will not work in android software and vice versa. The app is ‘native’ to that particular software. The ​apps built for iOS, Symbian, Windows or Android can not be used on a software other than their own. The main advantage in native apps is that they give higher performance because it is customized specifically for that operating system, keeping in mind the interface of that system. The features of the operating systems are kept in mind while developing a native app which makes the user experience smooth. The user interface is also designed particularly for that operating system and so it enhances the user’s experience. Native applications are accessible from the app store of the particular software that it is designed for. They have a higher reach to their targeted audience. One of the main cons of native apps is that they are very expensive to make and the maintenance also is costly. To create an application for another operating system, you will have to start the entire process from scratch, which makes it very expensive and time consuming. The codes for each operating system will differ and so to develop an app for two or three platforms it becomes very expensive. Web Apps: These applications are web based. They work in the web browser of a user’s device. They work well on multiple devices as they work from the web browser. They can be made using HTML, CSS & Javascript. These languages help in making these web based applications. There are various mobile app development companies​ that help you make these applications. The advantage of web apps is that they require a very low memory space on any device and work on any device irrespective of the operating system. Thus, the user experience can be maintained and made consistent across all platforms. These apps cost the lowest to make. They do not require an app store and so are accessible to all users across any device. The disadvantage of using web apps is that they work well only if there is a good internet connection. If the internet connectivity is low, the application may take a longer time to load, hence disturbing the user’s experience. The user experience is directly linked to the internet connectivity that they have and hence is always dependent on that. Not many people prefer web apps which may result in a restricted customer base.

  3. Hybrid Apps: These apps are an amalgamation of both native apps and web apps. It looks like a web app and works like a native app. They can be made using native APIs, IONIC, and various programming languages like HTML, CSS, Javascript etc. The advantage of this app is that it is easy to develop in comparison to other apps. A single code has to be used across all platforms and devices and so it becomes easy to maintain the app also. Any update or change has to be made only once and it will work for all the platforms. The disadvantage is that the same app is going to be used on different platforms, so the app cannot be customized according to the specifications of one platform and hence all the features of that platform cannot be used. So, the user experience will be affected. They lack overall performance and speed because of this issue. These apps face design and interface issues.
