title: Cordova vs Native apps with WebView
body: <p>The goal is to use an existing web app and create an Android and iOS versions of it with some functionality added (Push Notifications and Location).</p>
  
  <p>Being an Android/iOS developer, does it make sense to use Cordova with its native plugins for such kind of development or it would be wise to end up with 2 codebases (for Android and iOS) that would load the web app in a WebView? Need to mention that all the content must be loaded remotely (no html/css/js files can be stored in the app).</p>
  
  <p>There would be some heavy security requirements on the application and I am afraid of 2 things:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>It might be more difficult to implement security using Cordova plugins that using a native app.</li>
  <li>It might be more difficult to make one single html/css/js app behave the same on both platforms.</li>
  <li>There is no need to use Cordova if I am a native developer and could make things faster with native apps.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>If there is someone who could give some opinion or share experience on this, would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!</p>
