1. Many people are more comfortable with apps, and don't really "surf the web," and for such people "a webpage" is at best a hassle. 2. Those people and many more besides have no idea what "add it to home page" even means. It being an app gives those people an experience that matches their normal use of technology, and I think they're probably a majority of users. Plus, if the parent feels like making an app instead of a web page, who is Apple (or you, or I) to discourage that? | ||

> 2. Those people and many more besides have no idea what "add it to home page" even means. If Apple supported the beforeinstallprompt event (available in Chrome since 2015) then people would have same experience as installing app [0]. Instead, you must create a wrapper around webpage and submit thru App Store. [0] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/befo... | ||
