Why in the world does every store, every service, every organization need an "app"?

What is wrong with having a decent, functioning website?

I do not want to read, buy, organize and research things in an "app". I want websites. I mean, why do we have those big screens, right?

I hate, hate, HATE apps. I hate having to use my phone.

Why is everyone trying to make me use a tiny screen, a crappy "keyboard" with minuscule keys, and insists that is progress?

Apps might be more resistant to the lastest Google attack.

Google Just Patented The End Of Your Website

A newly granted Google patent could let the search giant replace your brand's landing page with an AI-generated version you have no control over and only your buyers see.

@Firlefanz wow now that's distopian. Also probably illegal because of misrepresentation and IP law, although they have already proven that they're effectively above the law whenever they use the word "AI"
