If you want to have the job done right and you want a quality product, go native. We lost days(weeks even) of time chasing an obscure bug in the location tracking of Phonegap. Also, the end result wasn&apos;t very good to be honest. It lacked the fluidity and responsiveness you have with native apps.&lt;p&gt;sure, you can develop things 2 as fast but then you spend all the rest of the time just messing around to get that &quot;native feel&quot;.</text></item></parent_chain><comment><author>nobleach</author><text>When you have a team that has no Obj-C/iOS development experience, you&apos;ll lose more than a couple of weeks. We have one Java guy on staff, and he&apos;s never touched Dalvik. Our usage of Sencha Touch has produced relatively good results. The sheer force required to write a native app for multiple platforms is too costly. If I hit a case that I can&apos;t handle in JS, I won&apos;t take the job.</text></comment>

At the company I work for, we tried both Phonegap and Appcelerator Titanium and it both was a total disaster. We&apos;re back developing native apps and both the development and user experience is just so much better.</text></comment>
