At my day job, our app has both native and flutter runtimes and it has not been super fun managing the two.
1. Common libraries (api clients) need to be built for all 3-runtimes (swift, kotlin, and dart).
2. Flutter runtimes increases the app size (539kb vs 4,700kb [0]), which is a problem for apps that are already too big.

- pzo 3y agoNot sure how it's on android market but on iOS app store its pretty rare to have app update (yep just update) that is less than 100MB even though all those apps were native - I know it's pretty crazy but this is were we live.
