FAQ
What is a 'native' app?
Native app development is when an app has been built in the language that it was designed to be built in. For Android this is Java, and for iOS it's Swift or Objective C.
How can I get my app on the App Store?
To put an app on the Apple App Store or Google Play Store you will need an Apple Developer Account and/or Google Play Console account. For iOS your app will also need to pass Apple's extensive review process.
What software is needed for iOS app development?
A computer running MacOS is required to use XCode. You're constantly required to update both MacOS and XCode to make releases and keep upto date with security and features.
What software is needed for Android app development?
Generally we use Android Studio (which can be run on either MacOS or Windows). There are other alternatives out there such as Eclipse and Intellij, though the vast majority of Android developers will use Android Studio.
Do I need a native or hybrid app?
Hybrid apps can be suitable for basic apps or prototypes, but native apps are best suited for professional app development. You can read all about our opinion on hybrid native apps on our dedicated blog post.
What is a progressive web app (PWA)?
Progressive Web Apps are websites (or web applications) that use enhancements to web technology to deliver an app-like experience without leaving the original medium you were using.
What's an enterprise app?
An Enterprise app is an iOS app that is used internally within a business and doesn't appear in the public AppStore.
How much money can I make from an app?
It all depends on the idea, the implementation and the marketing - there's a lot more to generating income than just building an app. Certain genres are very competitive - Flappy Bird was making over $50k a day at its peak!
