Nice app you've got there.

But no, I'll just visit your website in my browser, thanks.

This. Almost exactly this.

Oh, you have an app. How wonderful for you.

I'll just visit your website using a browser, but thank you for the app suggestion.

@neil And apps frequently ignore accessibility features built into a device. No pinch to zoom, or text to speech.

@neil In an almost perfect world local first Progressive Web Apps would be best.

On a recent trip, the company required their app which for the most part wrapped a web browser. They had a local support team to help people figure out how to download their app from the app stores and deal with certificate errors. A #PWA would have solved this.
