A Close Look at the Core
What is native app development?
Native app development refers to the process of building applications solely for a specific operating system (OS)—like iOS or Android. Unlike cross-platform development, which abstracts away platform particulars, native development uses first-party languages and tools that fit hand in glove with OS features and quirks. For iOS app development, you’ll write Swift or Objective-C in the Xcode IDE, and for Android app development, it’s Java or Kotlin in Android Studio.
This native approach ensures seamless integration with a device’s features, allowing you to eke out the last drops of performance and responsiveness.

What benefits do you get?
Performance and Speed
Native apps get close to the metal, capitalising on the hardware and software capabilities of a device to deliver unparalleled responsiveness. By directly interacting with the device’s native APIs, these apps load fast and run smooth, providing users with a seamless experience.

Enhanced User Experience
When it comes to user experience, native apps reign supreme. Their ability to leverage the device’s native UI elements and design guidelines ensures an intuitive and familiar interface for users. This consistency makes for happy users, who stick around and invite their friends.

Optimal Security and Reliability
Native apps make it easier to fall into the pit of success when looking after sensitive user data. They can also be less prone to crashes and glitches, as there are fewer layers of abstraction for developers to navigate. The result is a more stable and reliable environment for users to engage with the app than alternatives.

Access to Native Features
Developers have the liberty to access the full spectrum of native features, such as GPS, camera, microphone, without waiting for cross-platform libraries to catch up. This enables the integration of advanced functionalities that can elevate an app’s capabilities and user engagement.

Our Approach To Native App Development
Combining Quality and Agility
Quality matters. We take pains to design and build our apps to be extra schmick. But often the path from conception to finished product isn’t a straight line. We need to be agile, able to adapt our work to follow where your users go.
