Native Apps vs. Web Apps

Both Options Present Advantages & Disadvantages – Ideally Provide Both


Native Apps – Designed for iPhone or Android, Downloaded from App Stores
Mobile Native Apps are Critical
 As of last year, apps from retail businesses took up to 27% of consumer’s time


Web Apps – “Mobile Friendly” Websites
Mobile-Friendly Websites Affect Your Brand
 67% of consumers say they are more likely to purchase from a mobile-friendly website
over one that is not optimized
 Mobile internet usage is predicted to overtake desktop internet usage by 2014

Two Mobile Website Options:
1) Responsive Design Website
 Single Website designed to be accessed by any type of device
 Website adjusts to the size of the user’s screen
2)
Separate Mobile Website or “.Mobi” site
 Different URL for desktop & mobile site
 Senses device type & responds with appropriate page
 Provides access to frequently visited pages, but not necessarily all pages

Responsive Website or
Separate Mobile Website?
 Again, both options present pros & cons but Responsive Design Websites appear to
be the best option:
 One Website, Many Devices –
 Responsive websites have one URL & the same HTML code regardless of
device
 Provides a great user-experience across many devices & screen sizes
 Easier for users to share, interact with & link to than content that lives on a
separate mobile site
 Recommended by Google –
 Easier & more efficient for search engines to “crawl”
 Google states that responsive web design is its recommended mobile
configuration & an “industry best practice”
 Easier & Less Expensive to Manage –
 Changes to website are only done once
Responsive Design Website
Native Smartphone Apps

Apps are coded in a different programming language for each device “operating system” or
“OS”

Apps are downloaded from different app stores for each operating system

Apple iOS Devices = App Store

Android OS Devices = Google Play
Apple iPhones / iPads & Androids are the dominant technologies
iPhone & Android
