Abstract
In chapters 2–6 I showed you how to build geo web apps using HTML and JavaScript. Apps created this way can be accessed by a web browser via their URLs. As I explained in Chapter 1, one significant disadvantage of web apps is that they cannot be uploaded to the Apple App Store, and therefore have less visibility than a native app. In addition, it is much harder to sell a web app without access to App Store sales platform tools. However, by using a few lines of code, it is possible to embed a web app in a native app, thus creating a hybrid app.
