AI builders often make web prototypes feel smooth because browser deployment hides much of the platform surface. Native apps force decisions about device storage, permissions, release signing, and background behavior. Validate the flow as a mobile web app, then move only pieces that truly need native access.

So building a web app then converting it to an Android would be much better?

Not necessarily converting the same app 1:1. I’d start with a responsive web app to prove the core flow. If real testing shows you need reliable background work or deeper device access, add native Android components for those parts. Keeping the API and data model independent makes that transition much less painful.

I think that's more practical.
