I work on an iOS app like this right now, it predates a lot of these newer prebuilt solutions. There are some really nice features of working and building features this way, when it works well you can ignore networking code entirely. There are some tradeoffs though and a big one has been debugging and monitoring as well as migrations. There is also some level of end user education because the apps don’t always work the way they’re expecting. The industry the app serves is one in which people are working in the field, doing data entry on a tablet or phone with patchy connections.
