React Native Framework is very popular with mobile app developers and is also used by some top online brands such as Skype, Walmart, AirBnB, Adidas Glitch, Tesla, Facebook, Instagram and others. Let's explore the benefits of React Native for mobile app development and why we use it at ClearTech Interactive.

Benefits of React Native for mobile app development

React Native has many advantages for mobile app development.

1) Saves time and money

Since 95% or more of the code is cross-platform, meaning that it is compatible with both Android and iOS, developers only need to create one app, and eventually two apps. This saves time in app development, which saves a lot of money that is put into building different apps. Reactive Native businesses can have both apps for more than half the cost of building the same version. Due to the cost of building two different apps, companies no longer have to choose which version to build and launch first. In addition, both maintenance and updates are done at the same time on the app, which saves future costs after the app is built and launched.

2) great performance

React ...
... Native Apps perform almost like a native app that was built on a specific iOS or Android platform. They are also fast because the programming language is optimized for mobile devices. Instead of primarily using a central processing unit (CPU), React Native apps take advantage of the graphics processing unit (GPU). This makes them much faster than cross-platform hybrid techniques.

3) increase flexibility

The type of interface used in React Native makes it easy for individual developers to jump into a team where someone else has left and continue to build. This increases team flexibility, and makes it easier to update and upgrade mobile apps. It also creates flexibility for testers who are able to make test scenarios much easier. These benefits also contribute to saving time and money.

4) Movable

If in the future it becomes desirable or necessary to move the app to another development framework, then app developers do not need to start again. They can export the app from React Native and move it to Android Studio or Xcode and continue from there. This is a major benefit of using React Native for mobile app development and adds to its flexibility.

5) See changes immediately

React Native offers something called "live reloading" or "hot reloading" that enables developers to quickly see changes to code simultaneously in another live preview window. This gives a lot of benefit to the developers due to the real-time feedback.

6) Publish updates to your apps faster

It took too much time to publish an update for your app, forcing developers to go through a re-creation process with each app separately. That process is streamlined with React Native. Not only can both apps be updated at the same time, but the whole process is very simple and can be done very fast. As you create improvements and updates for your users, developers implement them through Over the Air (OTA) updates, which are also applied when users are using the app. Then, the next time the app is opened, an update is ready for the user. There is no need to manually update apps through the App Store and get them approved by Apple or Android, which saves time and makes the process more streamlined.

7) Enhancing an existing app

Got an existing app but want to grow it in a cost effective way? We can insert React Native UI components into an existing app without rewriting the app. This can be a boon when you want to enhance an existing app without completely rewriting it.
