From the above statistics, it is clear that the trend towards the transition from simple mobile devices to multifunctional smartphones is only increasing every year. It is assumed that in the near future the users will be directly connected to the smartphone. That implies all functions and information from the gadgets will go directly to our brain.

In short, the relevance of mobile application development is growing not only every year but every month. Hundreds of new mobile applications are released on online platforms every day. And while many inventors are working on this, people are wasting time on seemingly useless applications or an application that visually transforms a smartphone screen into a glass of beer.

Not just one technology can assist you to create an outstanding mobile application. With the integration of many technologies, efficient coding skills, and the features from varied frameworks, the mobile application can be created that you and your customers will like. Considering that, here, in this article, we have come up with the list of the most popular mobile application development technologies.

12 Best Mobile App Development Technologies

Python

Python is one of the leading programming languages which is used by the experienced and skilled mobile app developers for creating different mobile applications. As the open-source, dynamic and high-level object-oriented language, it is user-friendly and easily adaptable. The one with the basic technical or coding skills can create a mobile application simply.

It is a portable language which incorporates built-in debuggers to promote error-free development. In addition to that, Python provides community support, GUI programming support, different libraries and frameworks, and many additional features for quick and smooth development. Pythons are favoured for building the scalable and feature-rich web applications in less time. Instagram, YouTube, Pinterest and SurveyMonkey are some of its examples.

Java

As the reliable and dependent programming language, Java is supporting the developers with the best open source libraries and tools. OpenJDK is Java’s chief implementation to date, and most importantly, it is the developers preferred programming language for creating the native Android Apps. As it is easily manageable and there are several open-source libraries available for developers, creating the fully-featured mobile app is an easy task with Java.

Flutter

The flutter is an open-source mobile app development Software Development Kit. It assists the developers in creating the cross-platform applications and yes, Flutter is developed by Google.

Certainly, creating a smooth and error-free faster is easy with this mobile application development platform on iOS and Android, both. There is a high demand for this technology as users, nowadays, prefer cross-platform applications over the native applications that operate on one platform.

It uses DART as the programming language to create native interfaces. Also, Flutter relieves the application developers to write the overall code to create a single app for two platforms. Flutter has built Xianyu by Alibaba, Reflectly and Google Ads as the main mobile applications.

React Native

React Native has developed, particularly, for designing applications that are compatible for cross platforms, and it is efficient at this intention. Using this Mobile App Development technology, you cannot only mockup the application for both iOS and Android but also leverage the design and feature sensibilities that are incomparable for every mobile platform user.

Swift

Known as the general-purpose programming language, the Swift can be used by tvOS, macOS, iPadOS, Linux, watchOS, and many other platforms. This mobile app development technology works dedicatedly with Cocoa Touch and Cocoa frameworks, Objective C, C code written particularly for creating the iOS applications.

It uses the useful and powerful programming pattern and provides excellent features for creating full-functional features for making the perfect iOS mobile app development process efficient. Hipmunk, Lyft and LinkedIn are a few examples that are created with Swift.

Ruby on Rails (RoR)

The method to reach the project MVP may not be faster than Ruby on Rails. Techniques such as scaffolding acknowledge you to run the application in half an hour or less. 

Moreover, although you may need to spare more time developing the project, the same rigorous structure makes it easy to build new features and makes it simpler for new developers to get started with project development.

Below the upper level of Rails is the integrity of Ruby. From top to bottom, the Ruby on Rails framework requires as little as possible to do as many things as possible. Ruby advocates a structure in which each component is used for only one purpose. This not only accelerates the path to MVP but also the iterative process of combining new features and correcting bugs.

Kotlin

The aim of Kotlin is to create more advanced mobile applications. This app development technology is considered as the general-purpose statistically typed and cross-platform programming language as Java’s modern version. It is fully interoperable with Java and was originally designed for JVM only.

Security, simplicity, and powerful tool support present Kotlin the first choice for creating Android applications. Coursera, Trello and Evernote are few applications designed using Kotlin.

R Programming

R Programming is perfect for data analysis and machine learning. Despite this, this language is fit for basic statistics graphics and computing. It is the platform-independent language with large built-in libraries and frameworks to provide flawless, easy and smooth mobile app development.

From R programming, the experienced developers can build advanced and powerful machine learning algorithms for making themselves more capable.

HTML5

The mobile applications created with HTML5 have possible advantages. It is examined that HTML5 makes it easier and inexpensive to build the apps as JavaScript is recognized by many.

As JS is compatible with many browsers, then, the mobile devices can have an HTML5 application operating. With the native state of the software, you can leverage the built-in elements of the platform’s application.

The corporate developers consider HTML5 for converting the mobile app development process seamless, cheap and time-consuming. Additionally, with this technology, many multiple devices become supportive in the traditional business environment.

PHP

This Mobile App Development Technology uses the three-tier model and is easy to code to assist in creating interactive web applications and mobile applications. PHP work is perfect for apps that require integration in the database.

Several innovative technological tools are there that need to create their own mobile applications. This type of developer tools is great for building mobile software from scratch.

Node.js

This platform is ideal for full-stack development in well-known and popular languages around the globe. This advantage makes it a suitable app development technology. The capacity to use Javascript from the top-down integrates great usability to Node.js, however, it is also the most extensible platform around.

Therefore, if your app’s popularity exceeds the expectations, then you don’t have to struggle to find a solution.  Moreover, because Node.js does not have any handover when transitioning from the front-end to the back-end.

It is an excellent choice for handling direct communication between the customer and the user, and it is also a wise choice for handling large data transfers.

Phonegap

This is the broadly accepted cross-platform mobile application development technology. Nitobi Software, also known as Adobe has developed this. It is the open-source mobile application development framework. It allows the mobile app developers to create the application with CSS, JavaScript and HTML. Few advantages and features of Phonegap are:

  • Cost-Effective
  • Large Community Base
  • Cross-platform Compatibility
  • Better Access to Native APIs
  • Flexibility with web technologies
  • Robust Backend Support
