    I am thinking about having an iOS iPhone, iPad, and Android app for my community. I have had some requests from users because they think it will be easier to talk to the other members, ask questions and view various content I create.

    Does anyone have their own iOS and Android app for their community?

    No. I use the forum to communicate with other memebers or IM them.

    I had several points which are important

    to me.

    1 - First I needed my own app with real time chat and private messaging including the ability to send push notifications that can be downloaded from the app stores by my users and seen in mobile (all versions) so I narrowed down the search for chat room app solutions..

    2 - I needed a design to include my images, I needed my background to be black or transparent and completely white label with my logo.

    3 - I do not like to install the chat in my server as this is high cpu and resource consumer. So I need a complete cloud chat service.

    4 - Lastly, I needed the ability to add youtube videos, have users private message me, and have my own app account system.

    I have checked several app builders and only 1 met my needs, Chatwing.

    I choose Chatwing finally as it has real time messaging built in and can be custom branded as my own app plus can be integrated into my web page.

    The user of Reddit with name mrgnarchr conducted a scrupulous comparison of functions of iOS 10 and Android N and found out that they have minimal differences. Considering this fact and that the Google Play Store growing by 82% in January 2017, the total number of apps reaching 2.7 million is the primary argument while Appleā€™s Store grew by 60%, having 2.2 million apps, you can develop an iOS application and without much difficulty to transform it into Android app. This way will help you to save money with the app for your community. The only plus of Android in front of IOS, it's constantly coming out cheap and powerful models, IOS flagships the price between the release of a new phone and the previous model is such that more people want to cry (
