Should we build the app in Flutter or React Native?
Honestly… Most businesses ask this question too early. Because choosing a framework without understanding the actual product requirement is like selecting a car engine before deciding where you are driving.
After working on multiple mobile products, here is the genuine reality:
Flutter is amazing when:
UI consistency matters
smooth custom design is important
performance is critical
you want one strong codebase across platforms
long-term scalability is planned from day one
React Native works really well when:
your team already knows React
development speed matters
web + mobile ecosystem alignment is needed
third-party integrations dominate the product
startup MVP timelines are aggressive
But here is what most agencies never say: The success of a mobile app rarely depends only on Flutter or React Native.
It depends on:
architecture decisions,
API design,
scalability planning,
state management,
app optimization,
offline handling,
developer experience,
and how future-ready the foundation is.
A badly planned Flutter app will still fail. A badly structured React Native app will still become difficult to maintain.
Technology matters. But engineering decisions matter far more.
At PRISHUSOFT, we usually recommend technology only after understanding:
product vision
future scale
release goals
budget
team structure
maintenance expectations
and long-term business plans
Because good products are not built by following trends. They are built by making the right technical decisions early.
