Smart phones now days are enjoyed by people because they offer multiple benefits of calling, texting, emailing, watching movies etc. Thus if you are thinking of developing an application, then it is important to consider the kind of application, whether it is native or hybrid and we here at LogicSpice provide you with both the options.

Choosing Native Over Hybrid -

If you choose to develop a native application that means developing it on the native language platform i.e. Objective C or Java. Thus it majorly helps in enhancing the performance. Native applications are developed and compiled into machine codes which help in enhancing the performance of phone by Native application developer.

The enhanced performance ensures smooth application of animations with an additional access to hardware of phone as well as the newest APIs. This is not an easy way to develop it, but because there are numerous resources from which we can develop the app from, the professionals at LogicSpice are well trained. The code requires being tailor made for each platform and thus needs to be written with utter sincerity. Just the language differs but the core idea remains the same. And thus this is the basis to hire iPad app developers too.

Going Native -

So if one has decided to go native then a performance based mobile app is on its way, as suggested by our professionals. It takes good advantage of APIs and other resources.

Hybrid Over Native -

What is a hybrid application? It is just using native browser for web applications such as WebView in android and UTWebView in iOS. They are majorly developed using CSS, HTML and Javascript, which are further blended with a native application. There are such easy to use web native frameworks and the users have a choice of plentiful options. Thus it is easy to hire Hybrid Mobile Application Developers from LogicSpice.

The development of such applications is simple and rapid, with an easy maintenance. The platforms can be changed conveniently. There is Cordova to your rescue that lets you bind the application for multiple platforms by addition of codes. There are few plug-in too that supports hardware like camera and Bluetooth. Thus clearly hybrid is a winner in Native vs Hybrid.

The only problem that remains is that it still depends on the native browser which means that they are a little slow than native.

Going Hybrid -

For the hybrid ones, there are main two competitors which are Cordova and Appcelerator Titanium simultaneously. They are primary targets for mobile platforms working in different ways.

Working with Cordova is similar to developing a webpage. The Cordova works in a similar fashion as for the native but Titanium is a bit different. Here we don’t use HTML and CSS files, unless the application to be created uses both native and HTML interfaces. Thus Titanium proves to be a very useful tool which emulates the application on a real platform, not just on a browser.

Other lesser known hybrid options are Rho, Corona and Xamarin etc that we use at LogicSpice.

Thus both the native and hybrid ways are useful to fulfill the needs of users and developers simultaneously. Thus none can be stated superior to other as both have their own sets of strengths and weaknesses which can be chosen as a base for the decision by the client or by the Application development company
