I have to say that I'm all for web apps and web based apps using things like Cordova or what not, but recently my company's app has been hitting some walls. There are a lot of great things those systems can do and they're great for starting out. However in the long run you might as well consider developing native or developing using something Xaramin (which will probably be even more free soon). Native development just provides a less kludgy of developing. My company will be making the switch soon in this light. EDIT: I'd also like to say that the reason it's tough to develop for the web is languages like Javascript, sure it's getting better very slowly, but it also doesn't really allow for other languages to run in the browser and probably won't in the future. Sure you can compile, but why compile to JS and use a web view and work around conflicts while developing an app, when you can use a typed language and access APIs that work?
