iPhone Application Development Methodologies

A native application resides completely on the iPhone and is custom-built to support and leverage the resources and features unique to the device. Such direct access and connectivity dramatically increases application performance and expands the scope of potential new functionalities. Since the application resides on the device and all information is stored locally, access and interaction are also available offline, just like replying to all your backlogged emails on the flight back home and sending them out when you land.
