Thank you for a large number of opinions! I consider both mobile applications and web applications important as well as pulling them closer to each other. The issue is in design. Should the web designer adapt to the mobile designer or vice versa? What has the more priority? But that is an other topic....

Nowadays mobile application is likely now than web application because the android is here. Many people use android to play in the game. You can use it in any place. And also there is now a virtual gear which you can play a virtual reality. Which kids and teens like the most. But I will not go against the web application.

People nowadays will not far away from their smartphone, but to lazy to open their browser app and write an URL. So I think mobile app is the right one you need to focus, but also create your official website is necessary, for more presenting your project and your team.

I agree with this. It is like every web URL now is being created as an app too. Facebook, Youtube and even Coinbase made an application to ease the needs of those who are lazy to type a URL or even bookmark it.
The other thing is convenience. They want it one press away not two or more. A mobile app will be better and it loads faster than an URL.
Here in the Philippines our prepaid sim cards have promos on just using smartphone application to also lessen the expense of buying prepaid load. So it would really add convenience for us.

For me mobile application would be more worthy then computer browser. Now a days Most of people are using smart phone wherever they're, so if you are able to create some fantastic application for smartphones then you will get more chances to earn money form this project. Not only that it needs less distress then computer applications so making smartphone apps would be more convenient for you.

This would be great idea, as there's so many people nowadays have and love smartphones (whether android/IOS/windows). It will be less hassle to browse the forum through browsers. And besides you can earn as the developer also from this app through ads.
Agree on what you have said but instead of chossing only one why not on having both? It might be a big work but it would really be worth it at all when its being already launched. They do have both advantages depends on users preference on accessing the site. Mobile for easy access anywhere anytime on our smartphone but there are still people do prefer website application that's why its important on having both.

For me since their is a exponential growth of smartphones industry, I say go for mobile application. Like in our country, an average of 2 smartphone per user. And globally around 70% have smartphones. Lets be honest, most of us can't count the times sitting waiting for our computers to boot. So having our mobile apps takes out  the "wait". So you have advantage like speed, information collection and of course advertising. But you can also developed a friendly mobile website as well so you can hit two birds with one stone here.

Definitely its the age of smart and mobile devices, so a mobile app would be the way to go right now, that said you cannot take anything away from the good old browsers, still there are millions if not billions who actually prefer stuff to be in the browser, especially people who actually work from their PCs or laptops. So the best would definitely be giving both the options to users so you don't actually miss out on anyone, but yes mobile apps are more engaging and appealing than web apps nowadays.

its better to have mobile apps as people even in the urban places already have devices its easy to download and learn apps when its already inside your device and with the dev ends its also profitable when advertisement start to show up.

The smartphones are very popular but there are people that can't afford one. If you want a massive adoption, you should take in consideration that most people can have access to a basic computer than a smartphone. Anyway, mobile applications are mainstream and many people think they are very comfortable and usefully with availability anywhere so you should take it in consideration

Well, that depends. Do you need the users to be localized? Do you need to know their true identity? Phone number, etc...?
I'm surfing through many more websites each day, than I'm using different apps on my smartphone.

That is right and I guess it is easier to identify users via mobile app.

Because you can request for permissions, which -if granted- makes information collection much easier.

I think, I could develop both. The question is now, which of them should I begin with FIRST?

I personally think the focus should be on mobile technology.

If the goal is to use BTC as everyday money, an important aspect is to be able to spend that BTC in physical locations. Unless it becomes easier than using a credit card, there is no reason for the average CC-user/non-btc-user to switch over to using BTC.

And what do you think about API-usage? Developing a web application with API. And integrating its services in mobile (Android/iOS) apps via the API.

It would be much more cost-efficient than designing from zero at both.

In this way, there would be a good web application and good mobile applications with the important functionality.

Actually more practical mobile applications used on smartphones but more of its own risks in our smartphones damaged when we use another smartphone to use these applications may be applications that we use in the early smartphones do not support, so I prefer a web application in the appeal of mobile applications

Let us use a public blockchain's great advantage, which is availability!

Availability is not only one of the most important criterias of security, but also the comfort of being available from any device, anywhere. This idea goes well with the idea of mobile and web applications. We have this trend of increasing web/mobile applictions partly but mainly because we would like to access the application from anywhere with our actual device.

Since both technologies (from-browser-accessible web and Google Store-like mobile app) can use the availability of the public blockchain, which of them should we focus on?

Creating web applications that we can access from browser or creating mobile application that we can download from store?

Since as what you have stated and I quote "Availability is the comfort of being available from any device anywhere". So, in my opinion you should focus on both. Since nowadays, people are having multiple device such as mobile phone and a personal computer. And even me, when I am in my house, I am using my laptop to browse etc. But when I am away, I use my phone. So you should focus on both for the convenience of your desired app. I suggest you should also include those who are using Apple devices since almost 50% are using IOS.

Focus on both, if necessary.

The main purpose is to get in touch  in all aspects since every people have different availability on accessing anything online. Looks at some of the web apps that eventually adopt the mobile app version of their respected site. Much comfortable since the options are both available on different platform. Way better than only available on single one.

Some people have smartphones but not really new. As long as It's possible to target the lowest Android version (cover most of them) then I guess It's a better idea to go with Mobile applications.
