What do you like best about Apache Cordova?

Most of the plugins are available, so we don't have to write native code on different platforms. For making a build I use online Adobe where I can easily build an APK without having to install Android Studio or X code.

It becomes very cheap for me to develop Apps as I can't afford Mac for IOS develop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache Cordova?

Sometimes UI gets stuck and testing is another headache.

Some features are working fine on the testing devices but show errors in many devices when it goes live.

Once I got an issue while making an App that works on both online and offline mode, the online mode was woking pretty nice but in offline mode, it was not working, and also it was not showing any error, I become very difficult for me to debug that issue but at last, I found that it was an issue regarding the local storage that android device does not allow us to store images base64 data in local storage due to its heavy size. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Apache Cordova:

If you need both IOS and Android App working on the same code with a minimum number of developers than go for Cordova Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Apache Cordova solving and how is that benefiting you?

I need to make a Survey App on both Android and IOS but don't have an Apple device also I didn't have worked on JAVA and Objective C, so with Cordova, I wrote a single HTML & JS code which worked on both platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Apache Cordova?

The ease with which it gets integrated with Ionic 4. Using JavaScript and HTML which we are use to and build mobile app for Android and IOS is great. Huge number of open source plugins available to build great mobile app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache Cordova?

Tuning and final build of application for Android or IOS is bit difficult for intermediate professionals. Most of the plugins available are often not maintained or with bugs and usually not compatible with latest Cordova releases. It requires bit of native mobile development experience if the project is big and access lot of hardware interfaces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Apache Cordova solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solved bit of bug while accessing Bluetooth module for Android. Main benefits we have realised is using same Angular code for both IOS and Android . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Apache Cordova?

Cross-platform development, with a comprehensive API, the Simulation for testing on mobile devices works great too. A vast amount of supported plugins available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apache Cordova?

Installation/Setup isn't particularly user friendly – if you're familiar with terminal and Xcode you'll be fine – compiling and deploying the final app isn't as clear as I'd hope.

As the app runs in a web view component the app will be slower than a native app.

Sometimes its may be simpler to build a PWA Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
