Today's smartphone world is composed of two operating systems, Android and iOS, which together have nearly complete market dominance. Although they are just two operating systems, developing two versions of the same application generates many costs and issues such as bugs, as well as the cost of maintaining these applications. To alleviate this problem, developers use cross-platform development tools. However, the use of these tools has disadvantages that negatively affect the user experience that makes the applications generated by these tools inferior to the native ones. To investigate whether an application generated by these multi-platform tools can achieve the same level of usability as a native application, two fitness applications were developed as a proof of concept: one using Android and the other using the React Native framework. At the end of development, version metrics were collected and a Usability Test was conducted with students from the Systems and Digital Media course where a structured interview and a SUS questionnaire were applied. Finally, there is a discussion about the results found and the generated versions.
