Apps for both IOS or Android, or neither?

Featured Replies

I've been asking for quotes to build apps for a services on-demand business,  and i presumed i would need 5 apps.... 

Two for the Customers (IOS and Android) and two for the Services Provider's (IOS and Android) and one for me as admin.

But one designer has said its not necessary and both services providers and customers can use the same app. And he can make one app compatible with both IOS and Android 

Is that possible? 

You can use things like Phone Gap, Apache Cordova, Ionic and React Native to make apps using HTML/CSS/JavaScript that work fine both on Android and iOS and can use native functionality like the camera, phone etc.

All of the above with the exception of React Native get compiled down into a Webview app, which is basically an app with a browser window which loads the HTML/CSS/Javascript as a website. Reactive Native gets compiled down to Android and iOS apps written in their own native code.
