2. The difference between the mobile Web and mobile applications (Mobile Apps).

In this internet era, it is easier for us to find and get information, work and communicate with other people; most of us definitely use smartphones to access it. And of course we've used both platforms; the mobile web and the mobile apps.

- Mobile Web

Mobile web is a browser-based HTML page that is accessed using a portable device (smartphone or tablet) over a cellular telecommunications network (WiFi, 3G or 4G). So, it is designed to display content text, data, images, and videos on the web due to the limitations of screens and touch screens.

The mobile web has the principle of "develop once run everywhere", which means it can operate across platforms in one development. So, the mobile web is relatively inexpensive to develop compared to mobile apps because it can run well on all browsers and mobile platforms.

The mobile web can be distributed without having to get approval from certain parties and users don't have to search in application stores. But there are disadvantages, for example, the mobile web is only available if the user is online, the performance is relatively slow, and not all devices have certain features that can be had in the mobile web.

- Mobile Apps

A mobile app is an application made for a smartphone or tablet that requires users to download and install it through an application store (Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or Blackberry App) before operating it. Mobile apps are available for use on various platforms such as iOS, Android, Windows Phone, and Blackberry.

Mobile apps have faster performance, and are more visually appealing. Users have full access to mobile devices, such as cameras, gestures, notifications, speakers, and other features. The quality and security of mobile apps is guaranteed because they are controlled by their respective vendors. Mobile apps don't always operate when users are online, but they can also be offline. Application development and maintenance costs are also more expensive. Mobile apps also require an approval process and content restrictions that apply in the app store.

3. Conclusion

And each mobile web and app has advantages and disadvantages that might help you, if you own a business, to decide which one to use.

So, which one is better between mobile web and mobile apps? When you own a business and are confused about choosing whether to use both or just one, it really depends on your goals. What is clear is that you need a mobile web so that your website can be easily accessed on various devices used by the public. But if you want to add value to your brand and create a marketing channel that directly reaches your target consumers, mobile apps are the right choice. If possible, you can create both, but you can't just choose mobile apps. Because it is impossible if the company only has mobile apps without the web.
