One of the first questions in any mobile project: should we build native, or cross-platform? Here’s how we help clients choose between Swift/Kotlin, React Native, and Flutter in 2025.
Native (Swift & Kotlin)
Best for apps that need maximum performance, deep platform integration, or heavy use of device features (AR, advanced camera, complex animations). The trade-off is building and maintaining two codebases.
React Native
Great when you want one codebase, fast iteration, and a team already strong in JavaScript and React. It delivers near-native performance for most business and consumer apps.
Flutter
Excellent for beautiful, highly custom UIs from a single codebase, with strong performance thanks to its compiled rendering engine.
How we choose
- MVP or limited budget → cross-platform (React Native or Flutter)
- Performance-critical or platform-specific → native
- Existing team skills and long-term maintenance always factor in
Whatever the stack, we ship to both the App Store and Google Play. See our mobile services.
