Unfortunately, Google and Apple have crippled PWAs. Surprise, surprise. They don’t get the attention, features, or bug fixes native apps get.

But also, a lot of apps are just views into websites anyway. So I bet a lot of apps could just be PWAs.

The main hurdle is getting people to install the PWAs instead of apps. It’s a different install flow.
