No, I Won't Download Your App. The Web Version is A-OK. | Sid's Blog

The site that irks me the most here is New York Times. Opening an article in the mobile browser often has a toast over the bottom third of the article to open it in their app for "a better experience". I struggle to think how nytimes isn't a perfect fit for a site over an app. The only frustrating experience I have with the web version that would be better in the app is not seeing that that pop-up.
NYT occasionally uses fancy interactive articles. They have games, and other things that are better on the app. The NYT app is actually very good
Every time I end up trying an app for things like this, I end up missing tabs.
There is no reason they can’t have a native tab navigator. It kills me that Google maps app doesn’t have tabs.
