We specialize in both native and cross-platform app development.
Native apps are written in the specific iOS and Android languages (Objective-C and Java respectively).
Some benefits to writing native apps are that you have more access to the lower-level phone functionalitiy, and they can perform better when doing more complex tasks such as graphics for games.
A disadvantage is the apps are more difficult and expensive to maintain long term because it requires two code bases (iOS and Android).
Cross-platform apps (sometimes referred to as Html5 apps) are written once and deployed to many mobile operating systems through libraries such as Adobe Cordova and Phonegap which are built on HTML5, Javascript and CSS.
Some benefits to writing cross-platform are that there is a single code-base for every mobile operating system, reducing the time and expense of maintaining the app over time.
We also offer staffing for exiting app projects, please see our IT consulting page for more information.
