Android Or Ios What should be your first choice
Once if there is a decision of building the app for your business requirements then you would probably have to decide on the platform ie android or ios But both are the market leaders max apps in both of the appstore and playstore It is good to have apps on both Ios and Android but there are several factors along with the time constrain so it is very important to note on which platform do we need to build the app first
Now lets consider what are the factors choosing the platform?
Audience
To choose the os of the app you need to settle on few factors what is the end goal and users on which os either android or Ios your user base is more in and you should also consider the fact which OS has the highest user base,It is Android Which has the highest users and the highest number of app installs is on android when compared to the IOS,but you should also not let go of the fact “what kind of audience you are trying to target with your app” with respect to user engagements IOS has the higher engagements than that of android apps
Monetization
Eventhough the apple app store has less number of downloads the revenue generated in Apple Apps are more higher than that of android If intend to monetize through a subscription model or in-app purchases, iOS is the more lucrative platform. On the other hand, Android apps tend to monetize successfully with an ad-based model.
Project Timeline
How quickly do you want your app in the playstore is one of the factor that decides the platform Android usually has a longer release cycles and if you want your app on all types of android devices then it also time consuming
But one the other hand IOS apps can be built faster because Apply has very less devices and most of the hardware and software are handled by Apple itself But after the Iphone x series release the which is of different screen sizes developers need to deal with different screen sizes in recent times One point is that the development process is faster in IOS but the Apple store has the strict rules and regulations that makes the approval of the apps longer
Budget
There is nothing too much that differs in terms of cost with respect to OS be it Android or IOS,on a over all the budget of a app depends on comes down to the complexity of the project
