Mobile Web Application x Native Application Has anyone experience with one or the other? What was your experience or dealing with mobile Web from a customer point of view?

Which to choose Mobile Web app or Native app?
Before to know what to do is important to know the difference between the two.
Web App is accessed on the Web viea the user's browser, but it is an website that offers app-like functionalities.
Native App is platform driven, in other words, it is built for example for Andoid or iOS, or Windows 8 devices. It has to be installed on the user device just like an application that we install in our desktop. Native Apps offer superior experience but the cons is that it is not suitable for everykind of company and to write one code that works in everything is not that simple.

This is a fact but it does not mean that clean code and security is less important.  E-commerce example from a security perspective Let's imagine that a customer have an e-commerce site that is the most easy to use and to make customers purchase a breeze, and it has the best conversion rate possible, but it has a terrible security and the site constantly breaks?  How long do you think the e-commerce owner is going to keep in business that way if his customers do not trust to use his wonderful easy to use e-commerce?
