Title needs to be improved, replace Britain with Britain GDS, maybe add "and use websites instead" (but that might spoil the article).

- Joeboy 10y ago"Why the UK Government Digital Service chooses not to build mobile apps"
- jobu 10y agoAgreed. Terrible link-bait title, and the article is mediocre. Please change it to something like : "UK GDS bans apps in favor of responsive websites"
- xufi 10y agoI third that. The article doesnt provide much in the way of explaining it clearly enough.
- flurdy 10y agoYup GDS is not the British Government. And do not represent all of gov.uk. True they are responsible for the main chunks of the new gov.uk. But far from all of it. I should know, as Im involved with the development of a non-GDS part of gov.uk whom do also have some native apps... The use of responsive websites instead of native apps is a good rule though.
