Native Apps are apps made for smartphones and tablets and optimized for a certain operating system, such as Android or iOS. These apps can also be found on the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.

Native apps are built through an operating system’s SDKs, which also interact with the GPS, microphone, storage space, camera, and other features of the device. But coming to the disadvantages of Native apps require a bigger budget for development. Their maintenance cost is high if you want to develop native apps for both Android and iOS devices as they obviously have different operating systems. And every time these apps need an upgrade, and additional expenditure needs to be made.

However, one of the disadvantages of Native apps are that they require a larger development expense. Because they run on distinct operating systems, their maintenance costs are considerable if you wish to develop native apps for both Android and iOS devices. And every time these programs require an upgrade, an additional cost must be incurred. The way these apps are constructed, as well as the fact that they are made for certain devices, is what distinguishes them from Hybrid Apps.

Although native apps have numerous advantages, they are not without flaws.

Native apps, like other application techniques, have their own set of advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages of Native Apps -

  • Native apps are faster because they are built specifically for the platform. Many parts are pre-installed. The user data is retrieved from the web rather than the complete application, and they are quick since they employ the device's built-in characteristics.
  • Even if there is no internet connection, native apps work.
  • So, if you're stuck somewhere with limited or no service, like on a flight, underground tube, or metro, you can use native apps.
  • Native apps are a more refined version of the default apps on their device. When a user performs various functions, he rapidly grasps the application's natural flow because it is similar to other apps on the smartphone.
  • When the size and shape of the device are changed, many apps fold and begin to work incorrectly. Native apps provide you more control over the app's orientation, size, and resolution.
