I encourage everyone to believe this article; it leaves room for those of us who care deeply about the user experience (and the user's battery life).

  I was under the impression that React Native apps were pretty close to native on both counts. Is that not true?

  I think it really depends on the application... A simple crud app may as well go for biggest bang/buck, as opposed to full native on multiple platforms. Also, the last time I really tracked battery usage, it was the more intrusive social apps (all native) that ate the most battery.. and the screen uses more than any app.

    For a simple crud app, does it need to be an app at all?
    • mercer 10y ago
      Absolutely not, but thankfully for me many clients demand it even if I advise against it.

      Probably not, but you'd be surprised how many will prefer an app over the website, even if it's exactly the same interface.
