What's the difference between web apps and native apps?

There are two different types of app which we offer:

  • Native Apps
  • Web Apps

Native Apps

A native app is one which is developed specifically for a certain operating system. Apple’s mobile operating system is called iOS, and Google’s is called Android. iOS is only available through Apple devices, like iPhones and iPads, whilst Android is the operating system for many different types of phones including the HTC One, Samsung Galaxy S4 and Google Nexus 4.

We offer native apps for iOS and Android so if you one of these devices, then you simply have to search for the event name within the App Store or Google Play.

Web Apps

A web app can be accessed by any device which has access to the Internet via that device’s web browser. 

A web app can be used on a desktop, a tablet, or any type of mobile device. Unlike native apps, which are device specific, web app are device agnostic. Web apps can be bookmarked to the home screen of most smartphones. Once there, they will look and feel just like a native app to the user.
