What Does "Hybrid" Mean?
When we say "hybrid" we mean native user interface elements, native advertising APIs (which pay more) integrated with a web view that can handle all your embedded content we throw at it. Native is execute from the app binary and can integrate directly with the system OS and device. This gives your app advertising flexibility, maintains article flexibility and makes things faster and more fluid for the user.
