Experts in Java and Kotlin development
When it comes to native Android development, there are two technologies that matter: Java and Kotlin. Older applications are usually written in Java, but most of the new ones are created with Kotlin. Our developers are fluent in both, and with each case, they choose the stack carefully to deliver top-notch applications, made to fit specific business needs. Whether you wish to write a brand new app or spruce up the one you already have, we help you choose the right tech solution.
Android applications recognised worldwide
You don’t want to put your project in inexperienced hands. Our Android team is top-rated on Clutch, and with over 10 years of practice in Android application development, we have gained the trust of world-renowned brands such as Skyscanner, HelloFresh, Aviva, BNP Paribas, or Herbalife. We create beautiful, top-performing Android apps for industries like e-commerce, banking, music, and travel.
Cross-platform options
If you’re thinking about building an app for both Android and iOS, you will face a crucial decision. Should you develop two native apps, or just one that will work on both platforms? We’re here to make sure you choose the right approach! If you pick cross-platform over native Android application development, we can take care of that, too. Our team excels in building apps with the two most popular cross-platform frameworks: Flutter and React Native.

Why choose native Android app development?
Why is it worth building a native application for Android? See our reasons to make a well-informed choice.
Unique user experience
If one of your top goals is to create an Android application that delivers excellent, platform-specific user experience, it’s best to pick native development. When it comes to Android native development, it’s easier and faster to develop certain platform-specific features that may affect the UX. Also, keep in mind that smooth and fast performance of a native application makes the user experience more satisfying.
Native Android features
Planning to equip your app with functions like biometrics, geolocation, or features based on Bluetooth connection? The more native features your Android app needs, the better to go for the native product. Even seemingly simple functionalities such as push notifications tend to perform better within native applications.
Dependability and support
As native languages are more mature than cross-platform ones, they are generally more dependable as well, when it comes to community support or available resources. Also, if you’re thinking about expanding your app over the years, native development is a future-proof choice. Both Kotlin and Java are well-supported languages with rich ecosystems, offering a wide variety of open-source libraries, patterns or articles.
Stability and performance
Native Android development equals stable performance. Native SDKs and platforms for Android have been around for over 10 years, which makes them well-optimised and battle-tested. There are plenty of development and testing tools available, and it’s easy to find solutions to most problems that may arise during the development.
In-house transfer options
If you plan to transfer the project to in-house in the future, it’s a good idea to go for native development. It might be more challenging to find skilled cross-platform developers, while building your own team of native Android developers shouldn’t pose a big problem.

What should I consider before hiring an Android development company?
How to make sure you choose the right vendor for your Android project? One of the first steps is deciding what you’re actually searching for. Try answering these questions that will help you define your needs, and therefore choose the perfect partner.
What is my application idea? Am I going to need strategy services?
Do I want a cross-platform app, or a native one? Will I need design services as well?
- What do I expect from my Android development vendor?
- How much time do I have? What is my budget?
- Am I going to create my in-house team later on?
One thing that distinguishes a trustworthy vendor is an open, holistic approach. Whatever your idea is, they should be able to help you identify the weak links of the project, offer a technology that is going to fit your needs best, and stay proactive to suggest changes or improvements.
Is native app development better than cross-platform development?
No simple answer here. As usually, it all depends on your needs and expectations. For example, if you wish to release two uniform apps to the market as soon as possible and have a limited project budget, it’s smart to consider cross-platform development. However, if time is not of the essence in your case, and you want to focus on platform-specific features in each of your apps, native development might be a better option.
Not sure which one is better for your project? Shoot us a message at hello@miquido.com and we will help you make the right choice!
Kotlin vs. Java: which one to choose for my app?
Generally speaking, Kotlin is considered to be a more modern choice – all the newer Android applications are created in this language. Also, Kotlin applications are considered to be smaller, more lightweight and faster compared to the ones written in Java. However, there are still a number of great applications that are written entirely in Java – mostly older, monolith-type ones. Luckily, Kotlin is compatible with Java. So if you already have an app written in Java that needs modernisation, you don’t need to rewrite it entirely to add new features in Kotlin.
Should I develop for Android or for iOS first?
Each platform has its pros and cons, but it’s good to consider a few factors when thinking about which one to choose to begin with. Obviously, each case is different and it’s best to seek your vendors advice before you make a final decision.
Firstly, think about your audience’s geographic and demographic profile when deciding which platform to develop for first. You might be surprised how many differences there are between countries, age groups or professional preferences. For example, iOS is more popular in the USA, while Android peaks in India.
Second, consider your budget and time limitations. What is your desired time to market and what are your funds? It might turn out developing your app will be cheaper and take less time for iOS, or, on the contrary – that you can develop an MVP for both platforms equally fast. The right vendor should be able to advise on the best solution in your case. Need a hand researching your market and coming up with product strategy? Check our Ideation and Strategy services.
Third – what is your target revenue? If you’re looking to maximise your profits from the start, it might be smart to choose iOS development first. Statistics show that iOS users tend to earn more and spend more as well, which might help you reach your target sooner.
Still not sure? Shoot us a message at hello@miquido.com and we will help you make the right choice!
