Native app development Advantages of native apps Native or cross platform Native app development A native app is an app designed and developed for a specific mobile operating system, so if you want your app to be available for either iOS or Android only, then this may be the way to go for you. We have in-house dedicated developers with experience in building native apps for iOS (using Swift and Objective C) and Android (using Java), as well as designers who can help you optimize your app’s UI/UX depending on the platform. If you’re planning to have your app available for both iOS and Android, though, cross-platform development using .NET MAUI (Xamarin) might be the more cost-effective choice. Advantages of native apps Performance – Native apps are built with the operating system’s core programming language, APIs, and other platform-specific tools. As a result, they usually run faster and may come across as smoother. API – Natively developed apps have access to specialized UI libraries for the specific mobile hardware and software platforms (iOS or Android). Some of these libraries are not available to cross platform development tools. For developers, it can be easier to program certain functions using platform-specific development tools compared with cross-platform development tools. Native or cross platform While native app development has its advantages, it can also be a little costly especially if you want to develop for both iOS and Android. A cost-effective alternative is cross-platform development using .NET MAUI (Xamarin) . .NET MAUI (Xamarin) allows developers to develop apps that can be installed on both iOS and Android using only one source code base that is shared across both platforms.

We contacted Software 1902 because of their very competive pricing and because of CEO Peter Skouhus roots in Denmark. We had our first Skype-meeting with Peter and project manager Jerome in September 2018 where we explained what we wanted. A couple of weeks later the specifications were ready with a price estimate. Software1902 operate with hourly rates and no fixed pricing, so good estimates were very important. The solution would be developed using the cross platform .NET MAUI (Xamarin) Forms and the source code given to us at the end of the project. We would be part of beta test team and receive weekly updates from Jerome and Software 1902 would handle publishing to AppStore and Play Store. In addition to the project manager 2 senior developers and a creative director were assigned the project. The project went very well and within the time and price estimates given initially. The team were extremely profesional, highly skilled and very service minded. The sourcecode looks very well structured/organized and easily manageable. Throughout the project our primary contact was Jerome but we were also able to communicate directly with developers using an online communication tool. This worked very well to keep miscommunication low. We already have projects in the pipeline that we want Software 1902 to help us with. We highly recommend this company for your next software developement project." Read moreShow less Peder Spang President https://www.dbdata.dk/ "Will I recommend 1902 Software?
