Native mobile apps and mobile Web apps are both apps. Where performance is needed, native apps will always have better access to platform and resources. URLS don’t open applications, so mobile apps are better when a specific app needs to auto-run to provide the best experience.
The mobile Web is one area where most small businesses can benefit more from a native or Web app than a mobile app, Grigsby said.
