Native mobile app

Pros of Native Apps

Cross-platform mobile applications are built using very similar technology as hybrid mobile applications. Much like hybrid apps, they use a bridge that takes the language in which the application is written and allows it to run on any device without having to rewrite separate applications (for the most part). Cross platform hybrid app development Java is a much more mature language than Kotlin, with its first release in 1996. Though Kotlin 1.0 was introduced much later, in 2016, Kotlin quickly became the official preferred language for Android development in 2019. Outside of Android, however, there is no recommendation to replace Java with Kotlin.

Apps made with kotlin

Google gave major push to Kotlin by labeling it preferred language for Android app development at Google I/O 2019 conference. Native vs Hybrid apps – Which are better? As you have seen earlier, native app development isn't the only approach to building mobile applications. Cross-platform and progressive web apps (PWAs) are the most common alternatives to native mobile apps.

Prepare for questions

Kotlin supports many IDEs, Android Studio included. Developers can use battle-tested development tools with which they’re worked before for maintaining their codebase at scale.

PWAs can do most things native apps can and many native apps could easily be replaced by a PWA. But ironically iOS, the platform of the company whose co-founder first presented the idea of a PWA, is lacking behind. Kotlin App Development Services Once you are done with the build, now it’s time to launch your app to the Google Play Store. While preparing your app for the launch, make sure to hire Android app developer familiar with all the publishing guidelines without any flaws. If you are doing it yourself, then devote some time on reading the guidelines of publishing the app to the app store to avoid rejection.
