Almost all phone apps could be a web app

A great native app on an iPhone feels far superior to a mobile website. The gestures, the stack navigator, haptics, scrolling, native ui primitives, etc…

Also iOS accessibility screen reader APIs are way better than the web. Accessibility actions for instance are great.

		It doesn't have to be this way though. What you're describing is a result of Apple intentionally prioritizing native over web apps to maintain control of their lucrative walled garden.

		there are thousands of apps that do not require to be "great native apps". If only Apple invested more on mobile Safari we could have "almost great" web apps and be out of their mafia ecosystem. I am old enough to remember the days of Internet Explorer, I can tell you that it was not fun. It is a blessing that we can at least deliver some pretty decent web apps today, and we should keep pushing for it.
