Android native vs Kotlin Multiplatform: which is better for shared codebases?

The question is about Android .

Answer:
Kotlin Multiplatform is better for sharing codebases. It allows core logic and functions to be written once and deployed across Android, iOS, and other platforms. Android native code is tightly coupled to Android-only APIs, making it nearly impossible to reuse business logic on other devices.
