• often very basic
• can be developed FOR mobiles (better), or a retrofit (better
than nothing :)
• may be select or otherwise tailored content
• may have mobile-specific CSS (strip images, styling, etc.)
• easier to obtain device & browser interoperability (LCD)
• low barrier to development
• faster and easier to implement
Web App
• device-specific
• differences languages, & tools
