Mobile Development: iOS, Android & Cross-Platform Explained

Mobile apps shape our daily lives — from ordering food to managing finances. But how are these apps built?

Native Development means building apps specifically for a platform. iOS developers use Swift or Objective-C to create smooth, high-performance apps for Apple devices. Android developers typically work with Kotlin or Java, building apps that integrate tightly with Google services and Android hardware.

Cross-Platform Development offers a powerful alternative — with tools like Flutter, React Native, or Xamarin, developers can write a single codebase that works across both iOS and Android. This dramatically reduces development time and cost.

Each approach has pros and cons:

  • Native apps offer the best performance and platform-specific capabilities.
  • Cross-platform apps offer faster development and wider reach.

At TrueNorth Academy, our Mobile Development track covers all major paths — giving you the freedom to choose based on your goals. You’ll learn how to build modern, responsive mobile applications from the ground up, with real-world projects and expert feedback.
