Web application are a very exciting advance in mobile web development. Web app is a website that looks and behaves like a native app, which you would download to your mobile device. The users interact with it like an app they download from their app store or app marketplace, but instead of it being on the device, it’s accessed via the browser. iPhone app development is crucial for the success of your online business, considering the ever escalating iPhone popularity.
The main difference between a iphone and a mobile site is that a iphone app usually performs a function-that is, the visitor uses it to do something rather than to consume content. A good example of a iphone is the Facebook website-it functions in the same way as its app on a mobile and includes application like navigation.
Some advantages of iphone over native apps are as follows:
1. A iphone works across a range of platforms, so we don’t have to develop a separate version for different devices.
2. We can update it quickly and easily without waiting for the updated version to be featured in the iphone store or be downloaded by users.
3. If we’re making money from purchases via our app, we don’t have to pay a percentage to the app store, which is why iPhone app development is in great demand.
4. Only having to develop one app, and not paying a cut to the app store, can make it many times cheaper to develop a web app than a native app.
The downsides
1. However, web apps do have some downsides compared to native apps as follows:
They’re generally free to access so we can’t charge users to buy and download them, unless we add a required login, which users pay for via a subscription.
2.At the moment, we can’t access all of the device’s functionality through the browser-although this is improving.
3. The app store, or marketplace, offers a great place to showcase an app-if we develop a web app that we have to make people aware of it in other ways
4. With a web app, it’s much harder to store data on the device, and if we want to store data between sessions, we have to get the user to register and log in
5. It’s harder to incorporate iphone app development in complex interactions such as those required by games, especially as iOS devices don’t display flash content
6. Despite these disadvantages, websites are growing, and are often used in conjunction with a native application many mobile versions of social networking sites, for example, are essentially web development, but they tend to have native apps as well.
Choose how to develop your iPhone Application
There are a few different methods you could choose to develop your application, and the one you go for will depend on the application’s design and the existing site design. These methods are as follows:
1. Using a plugin to deliver an application like experience “out of the box”.
2. Taking our responsive design further to make the site look and feel like an app on mobile devices.
3. Developing a separate theme for iphone development, which will look and feel application like
4. Creating a new site on a sub domain of the main site, which will have its own theme and content
