- **Pros/Cons**
* - Gmail (Chrome Mobile Extension)
- |cross|
-
- **No Extension Support:** Official Google Chrome on mobile does not support extensions. Therefore, features such as loading JavaScript files, using JSZip, WebAssembly, or accessing the Gmail API are unavailable.
- **Third-Party Alternatives:** Some Chromium-based browsers on Android—like Kiwi Browser or Yandex Browser—do support extensions. However, their behavior and compatibility may differ from desktop Chrome.
* - Gmail (Gmail App)
- |cross|
-
- **Restricted UI Framework:** Limited to the Card Service (no custom HTML/CSS/JS).
- **Limited Client-Side Scripting:** Cannot run arbitrary JavaScript or load custom libraries.
- **No WebAssembly Support:** WASM modules are not supported.
- **Sandboxed Environment:** Strict security policies limit external resources.
* - Progressive Web App (PWA)
- |tick|
-
- **Full Control:** Runs in a browser and can load any JavaScript libraries, WASM modules, or third-party packages.
- **Gmail API Integration:** Use OAuth for authentication and the Gmail API to read, modify, or send emails.
- **Custom UI:** Build a fully user-friendly interface without the restrictions of Gmail add-ons.
- **Cross-Platform:** Works on both Android and iOS, offering a near-native experience.
- **Installation:** Users can "install" the PWA on their home screens for a native app–like feel.
* - Native Mobile App
- |tick|
-
- **Platform-Specific Capabilities:** Leverage native frameworks (e.g., Swift for iOS, Kotlin/Java for Android) to access full device features.
- **Optimized Performance:** Integrate encryption libraries, WASM modules (via bridging techniques), and JS libraries using hybrid frameworks or web views.
- **Advanced Gmail API Integration:** Incorporate Gmail’s API while taking advantage of full native UI components.
- **Enhanced User Experience:** Offers a more responsive and polished interface compared to web-based solutions.
