Hi Avdhesh,

AFAIK,  HTML5 is yet supported by some browsers on devices.

But native HTML browsers are relatively slow when we are going ahead with
the latest android app market where people expect
really polished, interactive interfaces. In such occasions HTML5 is ideal
and can done those stuff with less effort.

And one of the main advantage of native apps is the *disconnected*
functionality. HTML5 does include API's that should allow this
functionality, but AFAIK no one really supports it yet.( The user who waits
through a slow data connection to download once in our app,would not like
to so same EVERY time our app runs)

Other than that, there are many other advantages in HTML5 like powerful
audio/video support, good storage capacity and etc [1]
