I feel like a > web-server is high overhead for a native-feeling App. I don't think you need to fear the overhead. The cost of moving bits over HTTP can be insignificant compared to rendering a user interface. But I'm not sure if it is possible/allowed to run a web-server on iOS, Android and Windows for phones. I think your choice of targets limits the list of available languages to C and C++, but you should check if there are other options. (I would like to suggest Ada for the backend, but I haven't heard of an Ada compiler targeting iOS.) Greetings, Jacob -- "It ain't rocket science!" - Well, some of it is!
