Performance

In every aspect, React native gives efficient performance whereas ionic delivers average performance due to it is a web view. 

Reusable

In the case of react native, a single code is required for creating apps on different platforms like iOS, Windows, and Android whereas Ionic is also a single-use code for developing apps for the different platforms. 

Document

The documentation required for the React native is very basic and average on the other hand, the documentation for the Ionic is very consistent, precise, and clear.

Development

For react-native, the learner just needs to “learn” the framework one and will be able to write it anywhere while for ionic, the learner needs to “write” it once and can use it anywhere.

After doing the comparison between the ionic and react native, it becomes more difficult to find out which one is more suitable. Both frameworks have their own tasks and responsibility, ups and downs, pros and cons but the only thing is each that both can fulfill the demand of the client or developers where the other framework does not get fit.

If you pay extra attention to the great designing and user interface, the cost you invested in developing the app will be worth it.
