Understanding The Difference
Passion Apps
Passion Apps work through any web browser but feel just like regular apps.
They open instantly, work on all devices, and users can add them to their home screens with your custom icon.
Passion Apps are ready to use right away without downloads or app store approval.
iOS & Android Apps
Native apps are downloaded from Apple App Store and Google Play, offering platform-specific features like native push notifications and offline mode.
They provide visibility in app store searches and the familiar experience of traditional mobile apps.
Think of them as the premium upgrade path once your business is established.
