Native App Development: Variation in Various OS


 

Being in existence since 1993, Native mobile application refers to those apps which are developed for a particular form of a mobile device. These applications are typically acquired by the users by downloading them from an online store or market place such as the app stores. Native mobile applications have special features which makes it necessary to decide upon which OS you want to develop your app for. While creating a native mobile application for iOS or Android you need to bring into consideration the differences between the two platforms. The two OS, android and IOS differ at various points such as looks, structure, flow, etc. Therefore to help you decide for the best here we are up with the major differences about how one Framework acts differently in two different OS i.e. IOS and Android.

Different Navigation Patterns → 

Switching screen is the most common action in mobile applications therefore it is important to take a note of the native apps designing guidelines when it comes to navigation patterns.
talking about Android devices they have a Universal back button that takes you to the previous screen and works in all applications. On the contrary in iOS, there is no such Universal navigation button in native IOS applications which affects their design. Their internal screens may include a navigation bar with the back button in the top left corner. Also, the navigation bar is replaced by a swiping Gesture in the apps to switch to the previous screen which works in almost all applications.

Talking about the navigation the major difference in the iOS and Android native applications is iOS native apps imply left to right swipe gesture to switch to the previous screen while Android apps use the same gesture to switch tabs.

Button Styles →

As per the material design guidelines, app buttons are of two types i.e. Flat and raised which are used in different situations. Normally the text on the buttons in material design is all caps whereas in some instances we can find the same in native iOS apps too, but in the title case more often.

There is also a third type of button known as floating action button in Android and call to action button in iOS. Search floating action buttons depict a primary action of an application. For instance, the compose button of a mailing application can be a floating action button. In IOS applications the floating button is a call to action button located in the centre of the tab bar.
