    Why bother with making any apps these days when you can just build a web app and have it work across platforms.

      Because they almost always universally suck across platforms. Only exception I’ve seen thus far is Figma.

          Literally every time someone says Figma that’s what I hear in my head.

        Figma? I’d say most webapps either are optimised for desktop or mobile and suck on the other one. Figma is one of the few that sucks on both.

      First thing comes to mind is app integration with vision pro. I guess web app is not native enough for what they want to achieve

      Because once you add all the tracking and advertising, and try to prevent ad-blockers, they don’t work as well. You’re also limited in tracking by restrictions all browsers have to some extent

        Webassmely is still an option. Iirc Photoshop uses this for it’s web version and it seems to work very well
