Discover why Flutter is the ultimate choice for your next mobile app. From cross-platform development and stunning UI design to fast performance and cost-effective solutions, this Google-backed framework empowers developers to create beautiful, high-performing apps for iOS, Android, web, and beyond.
Choosing the right framework can be the difference between success and falling short. Flutter, Google’s open-source UI toolkit, has emerged as a popular choice for building high-performance, cross-platform mobile applications. At Very Good Ventures (VGV), we’ve seen firsthand how Flutter empowers businesses to deliver exceptional products efficiently. Here are 10 compelling reasons why Flutter should be at the top of your list for your next mobile app project.
1. Cross-Platform Development
Flutter allows you to write a single codebase that runs seamlessly on mobile (iOS, Android), web, and desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux). This significantly reduces development time and costs while ensuring consistency across platforms. At VGV, we specialize in creating unified solutions using Flutter, enabling our clients to reach their audience faster.
2. Fast Development with Hot Reload
Flutter’s hot reload feature enables developers to see the impact of code changes instantly without restarting the app. This speeds up development and allows for real-time experimentation—a game-changer for developers looking to iterate quickly and deliver high-quality products.

3. Beautiful UI with Custom Widgets
Flutter’s rich set of customizable widgets ensures that your app looks and feels great on any device. With Material Design and Cupertino widgets, you can achieve platform-specific aesthetics effortlessly. VGV leverages Flutter’s UI capabilities to design stunning, user-friendly applications tailored to each client’s needs.

4. High Performance
Flutter code compiles directly to native ARM or Intel machine code, as well as JavaScript, eliminating the need for a bridge between the app and the platform. This ensures fast startup times, smooth performance, and an optimized user experience on any device. Our engineering team at VGV optimizes Flutter apps to ensure they deliver a flawless user experience.

5. Strong Community and Ecosystem
The Flutter community has grown exponentially, providing a wealth of open-source packages, plugins, and tools. From state management to API integration, there’s likely a package for your needs. VGV actively contributes to the Flutter ecosystem, sharing open-source tools and best practices on development processes ensuring our clients benefit from cutting-edge solutions.
Last year, David DeRemer, CEO and founder of VGV, introduced the idea of a community-driven commercial roadmap. This initiative encourages the community to set shared objectives, align priorities, and inspire collective efforts to strengthen and accelerate Flutter's growth. Learn how you can contribute to it!
6. Google-Backed Framework
As a Google product, Flutter is actively developed and maintained by a dedicated team. It’s also used in production by Google itself for apps like Google Pay, ensuring reliability and innovation. Partnering with VGV means tapping into a team with deep expertise in this robust framework.
7. Rich Animation Capabilities
Flutter simplifies the process of creating animations with its built-in tools and libraries. From simple transitions to complex motion effects, you can deliver engaging user experiences with ease. Our team integrates creative animations to bring your app to life.
8. Cost-Effective Development
By reducing the need for separate development teams by platform, Flutter lowers overall project costs. The unified codebase also simplifies maintenance and updates. At VGV, we help clients achieve their goals efficiently without compromising quality.
9. Leading Brands Are Choosing Flutter
For most organizations, mobile applications are a critical part of an overall customer experience. For others, mobile applications are one touchpoint among many others, including web, desktop applications, and even embedded systems, such as smart homes and smart cars. But for almost all businesses and organizations today, software applications are a necessary element of how they do business and a critical part of their overall customer experience.
By 2025, Flutter has become the framework of choice for many leading companies and brands. From BMW to Alibaba, early adopters are seeing the value Flutter brings to their business.
Flutter’s influence extends beyond large corporations to include startups, small and medium-sized businesses, and independent developers. These groups benefit from its user-friendly development process, extensive documentation, and robust community support. This widespread adoption highlights Flutter’s flexibility and ability to meet the needs of projects of all sizes.
10. Future-Proof Technology
Flutter’s popularity and adoption continue to rise, fostering a vibrant ecosystem with long-term support. Since its 1.0 release in 2018, the Flutter team has conducted quarterly user surveys to gather developer feedback. In Q1 2023, the 19th survey collected 13,378 responses in just 14 days, covering topics like Flutter’s growth, API breaking changes, and deep linking. An impressive 93% of respondents reported being satisfied with Flutter, with 55% being very satisfied—a sentiment that has remained steady since August 2022. Notably, this high satisfaction level persisted even as Flutter's user base grew by 24% over the same period.
