I can usually spot a hybrid app, but I hadn't even noticed that OKC is one, and my experience with the app has been pretty good. I have seen the stuck loading screen occasionally, but I assumed it was due to connection issues; it's not like that can't happen with native. Either way, they obviously need to fail a little more gracefully, which should be a solvable problem.

How would you know you can "usually" spot a hybrid app?

  Subtle things: controls that don't match exactly, link box outlines, inertial scrolling with a different acceleration, keyboard limitations, or just the general feel. It takes a strong attention to detail to make these things feel native, and the OKC app apparently does this very well.

    I think the point the previous chap was making was that you've got no way of knowing if you 'usually' spot hybrid apps as you don't know about the ones you don't spot.

      Point taken, classic selection bias.
