Which board or which programming language to choose for developing mobile applications?

Question

Mobile development

Hello, friends! I'm standing on the doorstep and don't know what to choose. I want to become a mobile application developer. 4 main questions are
1) Android development to choose?
2) Ios development to choose?
3) Or choose cross-platform development?
4) What programming language to choose?

I understand that this question has already been asked many times, but I don’t know what to choose
Please help me decide, maybe you can tell me from your own experiences, thank you very much in advance !!!

Answer 1

As for Android or IOS, it's a matter of personal preference.
You can only take into account that the threshold for entering Android is somewhat lower - the availability of devices at a price, a developer account costs a one-time 25 USD, while in IOS it is 100 USD annually and you need a Mac for development.
If there is no money, then Android. If you have money - choose yourself.
Cross-platform - also depends on the tasks. If something is simple, then you can choose. If complex, then only native.
In android, Kotlin is now fashionable, but Java is also recommended to know.
In IOS, Swift is fashionable, but Objective-C is recommended to know.
As you can see, there are a billion "ifs". So the choice is yours.
