There are are a few challenges for building fully onchain as a mobile developer:
- Releasing apps require reviews from App Store and Google Play Store. Anything onchain might be seen as "crypto" or even labelled as an exchange.
- There should be a way in the future of developing a mobile dApp directly without having to rely on Apple or Google. PWA's, Scriptable (for widgets) are an option but at the cost of performance, but are easily deployable
What are your challenges?

If you're building a crypto app exclusively as a PWA then you're creating a lot of friction for the users to actually onboard and use your app
We need more mobile-optimized apps that can users can access and use from any common mobile browsers
Mobile-optimized browser + PWA is the way

I've always been puzzled why in Web 3 everyone builds web-first products instead of mobile-first (meaning proper native mobile apps). And then we wonder why there's no mainstream adoption...

For web devs, it's easy to get excited about being able to deploy to iOS and Android. I find Expo exciting too.
However, where I see this being challenging long-term, is for purely native features (push notifications, Google/Apple Pay/Wallet, widgets, etc).
The ideal would be to have knowledge of both OS's, JS/TS and keeping up to date with the developments of React Native. This would be extremely difficult to find and maintain.
For this reason I believe iOS and Android devs are still needed and by the looks of it every web dev can by default be a mobile dev with React Native.

Full privacy, not even Apple can read your messages, media, etc.
Never tried it but I'm giving it a try now.
It's also an open source app

Flutter vs. React Native this year 2024 on the Stack Overflow Dev survey
I have to say, for me this year React Native has been better than other years. I specially like how Expo allows you to do a lot of things.
I never tried Flutter and probably should for a toy app.
