What are Hybrid app development services? Difference between hybrid, native, and cross-platform?

Hybrid app development services are an approach to building mobile apps that are compatible across any operating system, like Android, iOS, and Windows. Hybrid mobile apps use a single code base that can be reused on different platforms. Here, you can find a detailed difference between hybrid, native and cross-platform;

Hybrid: The hybrid app development allows developers to write a single common codebase and wrap the code in a native container (WebView or Crosswalk). The container helps developers to take advantage of native features and renders a native app-like experience. Hybrid apps are popular because of their speed of development and low development costs. Although it replicates the native app experience, for complex apps end-users can encounter reduced performance.

Native: Native app development is designed to work on specific operating systems and rely on platform-specific programming languages and tools. Organizations focused on high performance, superior runtime optimization, and enhanced user experience, and enhanced security usually use native app development services. However, if a native app is built for iOS and Android, then the coding will have to be different, and this may be time-consuming when compared to Hybrid app development. Also, the maintenance cost is huge in comparison to the other development services.

Cross-platform: Cross-platform mobile app development resembles almost hybrid mobile app development, with just a few differences. In a cross-platform approach, the developers use a special bridge to connect the codebase to native components. Compared to hybrid app development, the cross-platform relies on non-web technologies like Flutter, React Native, and Xamarin to develop apps. The biggest benefit is that it gives a native app-like experience for complex applications without hampering its performance.

What are the key features of Hybrid application development?

Some of the key features of hybrid application development include its ability to function offline, it is compatible across diverse systems, scalable, and it supports portability across various platforms utilizing HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The development cost and time are much lesser in comparison to other methods. It utilizes frameworks like React Native, Ionic, or Xamarin, which can deliver a native experience and allow access to device features. It also offers seamless updates and diverse plugin support features.

What frameworks are used to build Hybrid and Cross-platform mobile apps?

Hybrid mobile app development companies use several frameworks to effectively build performance-driven Hybrid and Cross-platform mobile apps. They contain the necessary codes, APIs, and other elements. Some of the popular hybrid mobile app frameworks include; Flutter, React Native, Apache Cordova, formerly PhoneGap, Ionic, Firebase, .NET MAUI, formerly Xamarin, Unity, and Appmaster. While some of these frameworks are used together to implement high-end functionalities compatible with different platforms, others are solely enough to build whole hybrid and cross-platform mobile apps.

What process do Hybrid app development companies follow for projects?

Hybrid app development companies usually follow a standard process for their projects. This typically includes analyzing the requirements, planning and creating the roadmap, creating a single codebase, designing and developing using web technologies and containers, testing for eliminating bugs, security lapses, etc., deployment on the relevant platforms, post-deployment support and maintenance for continuous functioning. These steps may vary depending on the project requirements, business model, location, and app complexity. Check with your preferred hybrid app developer to determine the process they follow.

What are the advantages of Hybrid and Cross-Platform application development?

The advantages of hybrid and cross-platform application development are:

  • It supports code reusability across Android and iOS devices.
  • It takes a shorter time to develop apps.
  • Facility to deploy apps on multiple platforms to reach a broader audience.
  • Improved performance of the application and user experience.
  • Seamless integration with the cloud.
  • Hybrid apps have offline functionality that supports access to the application even in low connectivity.

Do Hybrid app development companies offer up-gradation services for an outdated version?

Yes, hybrid app development companies offer up-gradation services for an outdated version of your apps through in-app messages. Older versions of mobile apps are prone to bugs and errors, which can affect the user's experience. Moreover, companies have to spend a lot of time and resources attending to customers' complaints and fixing bugs. To avoid this issue, have better business opportunities, and security, and give a superior-level customer experience, hybrid app development companies offer up-gradation services for an outdated version. Instagram, UBER, Evernote, etc., are some popular hybrid apps that upgrade their apps regularly to deliver the best customer experience and optimized app performance without affecting the existing data.

Is outsourcing Hybrid Mobile app development better than in-house development?

Outsourcing hybrid mobile app development to off-shore developers is relatively better than in-house teams. Off-shore hybrid app development companies have the required resources, seasoned employees, time, knowledge, and expertise, to ensure the timely development of high performance based hybrid applications. In addition, outsourcing the project reduces the workload allowing the in-house teams to focus on other aspects of the business. This significantly improves business productivity besides ascertaining greater flexibility, faster app development, and access to a large talent pool.

What should I consider when hiring a Hybrid app development company?

Hiring a hybrid app development company can be easier upon considering the following factors:

  • Portfolio of past and existing clients to check the company’s expertise
  • Skills for better user experience and customer satisfaction
  • Performance of developed apps for ensuring the development of reliable and robust apps.
  • Pricing of the services offered
  • Application development lifecycle to understand the development process
  • Team/Employee size to ensure timely project execution
  • App designing skills to check UI/UX designing capabilities
  • Industry experience to ensure the company is aware of relevant policies and compliance.
  • Ratings and reviews to determine the quality of delivered work

GoodFirms’ list of top hybrid app development companies can be leveraged to analyze the above-mentioned factors.

How do Hybrid or Cross-platform app developers manage data security within the app?

By using various security measures like data encryption, access control, double-factor authorizations, and data backup, hybrid or cross-platform app developers manage data security within the app wisely. Hybrid app developers also conduct thorough mobile app security testing before its release, like penetration testing, secure code analysis, and vulnerability assessment, to minimize risks of data breaches. Meeting regulatory compliances (GDPR, CPRA, FISMA) and performing security audits are additional measures to safeguard users' data. Besides that, developers also embed cross-platform apps with security tools like firewalls and malware scanners to identify and block security threats.

How much does it cost to build Hybrid applications?

The cost to hire a company to build hybrid applications is one of the most critical deciding factors. Depending on your business goal, type of app, and customization, the cost can vary. Here is an approximate breakup of the same;

  • Cost to build a basic hybrid app - $ 30,000-$50,000
  • Cost to build a slightly complex hybrid app - $ 50,000-$120,000
  • Cost to build a high-complexity hybrid app - $ 120,000- $3,50,000

The experience, skills, and customer reviews of hybrid mobile app development companies also influence the overall development costs.

Can a Hybrid or Cross-Platform app work offline?

Yes, hybrid apps can work offline since the data is stored in the app API  (Offline data access API), the data can be fetched without the internet or with intermittent connectivity. However, for some hybrid applications, it is not possible to access them online because their data is not stored locally ( on-device) and is located on the cloud servers or lacks offline integration features. Whereas for cross-platform, the app can be accessed offline depending on the framework used for app development.
