That’s definitely not what made the iPhone unique. It was one benefit, but hardly the only one, or even the main one. You hope that open technologies are the future, but it remains to be seen. Regardless, a rapid shift to PWAs is not at all in Apple’s interest, and I highly doubt they’re going to do that. They want all the best apps, developers, and customers to be concentrated on iOS. That’s how things are now (I’m sure many will disagree), and making it easier for users to exit the Apple ecosystem will only hurt them. Apple’s strategy is to invite users into a high-quality, comprehensive ecosystem, and then sell them more devices (and increasingly services) over time. The best way to do that is to provide a differentiated experience that can’t be replicated elsewhere. Given that, why on earth would they shift to focus on PWAs over increasing their hold on the factors that differentiate them?
