> It’s better than non native for performance and experience but many companies will of course care more about the money saved from a sub native experience with fewer developers.
I currently work at an agency doing Android apps (not a typical pump and dump agency mind you, I've been the lead on this single project for 5 years and we've had them as a client for 8+), and I'm so happy to see our client buck that.
They've had us on a native app that we've been supporting for the entire 8 years, and had deep technical issues from before us ("lets reinvent the web browser for UI"). They had a secondary internal team (known to us, no hidden surprise, you're gone stuff) working to replace us with a greenfield cross platform app (I think react native). That project went on for a year before they cut their losses and said "cross platform can't be good enough."
We're now in the planning phase of a complete greenfield rewrite of the existing app to take advantage of Compose + Kotlin, and ditch 12 years of tech debt and I'm practically ecstatic.
