Mobile app development vs. choosing a specific platform
A topic that is extremely important, but separate from the general issues raised earlier, is deciding on the preferred operating system to which the business mobile applications are to be specifically developed. This is a necessary stage to go through before the actual mobile application development takes place, as the technologies that we will use to complete your order depend on it.
To help you get an initial idea of the topic, below we have prepared a brief summary of the most important advantages resulting from the use of each of the solutions proposed by us. If, after reading it, you will be interested in learning more about what mobile application programming entails depending on the choice of one of the platforms described below, feel free to contact us or read the information posted within the subpages dedicated to them.
Android application development - key benefits
Thanks to the popularity of Android among smartphone and tablet users, creating applications dedicated to this system is usually the first choice of our clients. Currently, the whole world market of operating systems is divided between two companies: Apple and Google, with the share of the second one being about 85% and still growing. The first and fundamental benefit of creating applications for Android is the ability to reach millions of users from almost any part of the globe.
When it comes to the other, also very important advantages that Android mobile applications are characterized by, designing software dedicated to this system also involves:
- - strong support from Google, which offers a specialized platform to both distribute and enable effective mobile app development,
- - the option of personalizing the software to a huge extent and including almost any functionality within it,
- - relatively low level of investment, achieved, among others, thanks to the fact that every developer or company creating mobile applications for Android has free access to modern open-source tools from Google, such as the Android App Development Software Kit,
- - security of use and distribution, although these factors depend primarily on the extent to which a professional company designs mobile apps - in the case of our company, in a matter such as Android app development, we provide clients with a guarantee of no bugs and the ability to distribute software across dissimilar segments.
iOS app development - why is it worth it?
After seeing the advantages that Android mobile software has, designing an iOS app may seem like a bad idea at first. In practice, however, it is hard to come up with a more erroneous conclusion. It is true, of course, that the first of these systems is much more popular, but on the other hand this does not mean that designing solutions for it is unequivocally better than creating applications for iOS. Programs on the operating system from Apple are characterized by above-average reliability of operation and the highest safety factor in the context of their use or further development.
In addition, the choice of iOS applications is a kind of premium option, because Apple attaches great importance to the fact that the company developing mobile applications for their system adheres to rigorous quality standards. Thanks to this, the final products are characterized by perfection of workmanship and finish, providing users with a high comfort of use, an excellent experiential experience, and - crucial from the investor's point of view - an impression of exclusivity.
As it is commonly known, the recipients of services or products perceiving them as exclusive and made with great care, are ready to pay much more for them than for their standard counterparts. This, in turn, makes creating applications for iOS generates a chance to obtain a high return on investment, even if they do not reach such a large audience as it could be the case with software intended for Android.
Application programming based on Flutter framework - key advantages
The Flutter framework was developed by Google, and the main idea behind its creation was to be able to create very powerful mobile applications on both Android and iOS in an extremely limited amount of time.
As far as the advantages of the software variants we offer are concerned, creating applications based on Flutter is connected primarily with very high effectiveness of this process and the fact that the final product is compatible with both aforementioned operating systems. Designing mobile applications using Flutter is realized on the basis of the same codebase for Android and iOS.
Looking at the described solution from the perspective of features important to you as a customer, it is worth mentioning that mobile business applications created on the basis of Flutter are smooth and fast in operation, and the costs of implementation and subsequent maintenance or development of the project are relatively low, due to the specificity of this framework - it translates into, among others, reduced effort in testing mobile applications and the already mentioned high speed of their creation.
Mobile app development - which platform to bet on?
So what to choose - iOS application development programs for Android or solutions derived from Flutter framework? Unfortunately, there is no clear answer to this question, and making a final choice should be preceded by a thorough analysis of the most important pros and cons of each platform.
If you are interested in the possibility of cooperation with our company, we invite you to contact us, during which we will identify your needs and on this basis show you the most suitable option. We guarantee that regardless of the type of software finally chosen, application development through us will allow you to achieve excellent results.
