Frequently asked questions

Why compare native vs cross-platform?

Native (separate iOS + Android codebases) maximizes performance but roughly doubles build and maintenance cost; cross-platform (one codebase) cuts cost and time-to-market for most business apps. The calculator shows the three-year total for each so you can decide with numbers.

Does this include ongoing maintenance?

Yes. App cost is not just the build — OS updates, fixes, and improvements run every year. The three-year window makes that ongoing cost visible instead of hiding it behind a single build quote.
