This send to be quite heavily marketed on here. So many threads on this app throughout my feed.
I dislike the use of a YouTube video over a web page, but that might just me being old fashioned
Yeah most apps are just webpages in a wrapper, so maybe they're going to do that.
It's even the same on desktop, like the discord, twitch or teams apps.
Most is maybe not the best word to use here. Many desktop apps are browser-based these days, but it's fairly uncommon in the mobile landscape.
Yeah, most might be an overstatement, but uncommon is also not the reality, just did a quick Google search.
Webapps: Google Apps (Google Docs, Google Drive, Google Calender, etc.) Zoom Spotify YouTube Skype LinkedIn Amazon
Native apps: Instagram Ebay WhatsApp Blinkist McDonald’s App AirBnB TikTok
I don't really see a tendency there.
None of those are web-based on mobile.
How do you know?
I'm a native app developer for Android, which gives me some professional insight into what's web-based or not.
