Can I use C++ for Mobile Development?

The question is about mobile

Answer:

Yes, you can use C++ for mobile development, in particular, for the performance-critical parts of an app. This is more in the field of game development or some other difficult algorithms that require a high degree of efficiency.

 

One can use C++ even while working on Android through the use of the Android NDK (Native Development Kit) to develop parts of an app in native code. C++ on iOS may be used together with Objective-C or Swift. For general mobile application development, languages like Swift, Kotlin, or Java are widely used, as they integrate much better with native APIs and tools of target mobile platforms.
