iOS if you're in Western markets (smaller talent pool, strong demand). Android if targeting global markets or prefer Java/Kotlin. Both have strong demand worldwide. The learning: Swift/SwiftUI for iOS, Kotlin/Jetpack Compose for Android. Pick one platform, master it deeply, then expand. Companies value deep expertise over shallow knowledge of both. Many mobile developers specialize in one platform throughout their careers.
Yes, but understand the tradeoffs. React Native is excellent for content-driven apps, MVPs, and teams with web expertise. It struggles with complex animations, heavy native integrations, and platform-specific UX polish. Many companies use React Native for speed, then rebuild critical apps natively later. It's a valuable skill that opens doors, especially at startups, but native expertise typically offers more senior-level opportunities.
Pick iOS or Android, complete the official tutorials (Apple's SwiftUI tutorials are excellent), then build 2-3 apps that solve real problems. Publish them to the app store—this matters more than GitHub for mobile roles. The publishing process teaches you about signing, provisioning, and app review, which employers value. Document your development process and decisions to show your thinking.
React Native has more job postings currently (~2x Flutter globally), but Flutter is growing fast, especially at larger companies and for internal tools. React Native benefits from React's dominance in web; Flutter offers better performance and cross-platform consistency. Learn either—the cross-platform concepts transfer. Your choice should depend on the ecosystem you're already in and the types of companies you want to work for.
