I'm trying to choose which way is the best to write a data-driven app, in PhoneGap or native Android?

I need help with some information which I couldn't find anywhere online. is it possible to convert my existing android app to ios using PhoneGap/Cordova? if it is yes, could u guys send me any link to do it. if its no, can I know why? please...
No, you can not convert it. Code base and frameworks are to different. For making cross platform app you can use Flutter, Xamarin or others...
Only if your android app is already a web application. Cordova and phonegap are a set of libraries for extending mobile web applications with native functionalities.
Apache Cordova is an open-source mobile development framework. It allows you to use standard web technologies - HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript for cross-platform development. If your current Android application is a Native application; you cant convert application to iOS.

I have a problem. I need to build an ionic application but it has to be able to build a native app.
The idea is that the Ionic app can be used the kind of standalone. The data with the app needs has to come from the native language. But still, have to feel like it's a mobile app.
So let's say we already have an existing Native mobile app on Android. We just make a new tab there with a Webview. In the Webview, I can run my Ionic app but it still has to communicate with the Android app. Let's say the app needs local storage. Then the Ionic app needs to use the Native local storage from Android. So I have to config the local storage Native. Jet I only want to make the app only once for all the different platforms.
Is this possible? Are they any known ways to make this or any good plugins who can help me doing this?
no, webview not let code to communicate with android native functionality. your code in android webview cant communicate with you app's other functionalities.
I am developing an iOS application on swift and I was wondering is it possible to convert the code to run on android devices or I have to develop a new application. I have experience only with writing application on swift and I do not know how to create an android application. If it is possible to convert it it will be great.
If you do not want to write different code for ios and android. Check if Hybrid app fits your requirements. Check out Apache Cordova (Adobe phonegap). You will be coding your application as a web app using HTML Css Js. Please be aware of its own pro's and con's of going with hybrid app.
If you are looking for truly native alternatives, Check out Xamarin which gives you native application's UI, Performance and access to low level API's. You need to code your app in C#
You cannot directly convert swift code to make it work on Android.
