Flutter or native? Choosing your app’s technology clearly

What is Flutter?

Flutter is Google’s framework for building apps for several platforms from one Dart codebase. It renders the interface with its own engine, so the app looks consistent on iOS and Android and runs smoothly.

When is Flutter the better choice?

For most business apps:

• Stores, delivery and booking apps.
• Customer service and loyalty apps.
• Employee and field-rep apps.
• When you want a faster launch on both platforms within a set budget.

When do we choose native?

When the app needs advanced video or audio processing, complex Bluetooth links to medical or industrial devices, heavy games and graphics, or OS features that just shipped. In those cases two separate codebases are worth the investment.
