  • Needs Android Studio and/or XCode to run the projects
  • You can’t develop for iOS without having a mac.
  • Device has to be connected via USB to use it for testing.
  • Fonts need to be imported manually in XCode.
  • If you want to share the app you need to send the whole .apk / .ipa file
  • Does not provide JS APIs out of the box, e.g. Push-Notifications, Asset Manager, they need to be manually installed and linked with npm for example
  • Setting up a working project properly (inlcuding device configuration) is rather complicated and can take time.
