Feels weird to applaud add to home screen but not want the app. Also im on wifi so often that i guess 50mb to download an app is a non issue for me.
I am biased because I build native apps vs web apps but ive always preferred a rich native experience and design vs the web. To each their own!
- lucasverra 8y agoNo, IOS does not allow notification in browser [1]. >Note: This document pertains to OS X only. Notifications for websites do not appear on iOS.

P.S: not assuming IOS is mobile, yes assuming significant amount of mobile economy is IOS browsers
- donretag 8y agoNo push notifications is an added bonus. I do not want notifications. None. Zero.
- rchaud 8y agoThe problem is most companies are not interested in building rich native experiences. Amazon is a trillion dollar company and their mobile app is horrendous. They don't see it as a priority, it's just something that has to exist, like how companies have to write awful PR blog posts that nobody is reading. For me, the "add to home screen" means the PWA launches in fullscreen without any browser chrome and that helps the experience a lot. My home screen gets a tiny bit more cluttered but that's an acceptable tradeoff.
