What are iPhone Native Apps?

What are iPhone Web Apps?

Comparison of the two kinds of apps

Verdict – which app is right for you?
Native iPhone App
When your app is a complex app like a game or involves many steps
When it needs to use hardware features or location features
When processor speed needs to be used
When portability is not an issue
When data needs to be stored on the iPhone
Web App
When your app solves a simple task in very few steps
When no hardware features are required
When processor speed is not critical
When portability is important
When data does not need to be stored on the phone itself, but on another server (so that it can be accessed from another app)

Conclusion
The two kinds of apps are appropriate in different scenarios
Only the business requirements and functionality of the app will determine which one is better over the other in that particular situation
Evaluate the requirements and decide based on the comparison table
We can help you decide and build – let us know and we will be happy to work with you on this. We have experience and expertise in building both kinds of applications
