☛ Back-ground processing: Large number of application depends on background thread while PhoneGap API are built using JavaScript which does not support multi-threaded and hence does not support back ground processing
☛ Advanced graphics: Apps that use advanced graphics can be accessed explicitly by third party libraries, which can be best done natively
☛ Complex business logic: Number of complex business app can be accessed better with a native code
☛ Access advanced native functionality: Number of native API’s are not supported by PhoneGap’s API
