Hi Manuel - as a product manager for the SAP Cloud Platform SDK for Android, I can tell that certainly creating an app with the SDK is a great choice! But as a representative of SAP Cloud Platform Mobile Services, and more importantly SAP, I can tell you there are several options that we make available to you - and the one that you should choose depends on the use case, your user base and your development skills. For anything but pure web, we recommend including Mobile Services in your end to end architecture, but beyond that you still have to make some choices. We consider a native end user experience to be the best, there are many different ways to get there. A good overview on the development options topic can be found in michael.jess's blog here - https://blogs.sap.com/2017/06/21/sap-cloud-platform-mobile-services-development-options/.
