2 What is the difference between mobile native app and web app? Native app is one that is installed directly onto the smart phone and can work, in most cases, with no internet connectivity depending on the nature of the app. Web app works with web browsers on the smart devices or desktops that requires either a cell signal or Wi-Fi to function. It has the fortune of being used on multiplatform and devices with less maintenance, as simple as maintaining a web page. Change or add features often or as frequently as needed, and arguably cheaper to develop and maintain.
