- what_ever 8y ago> Nobody wants an app anymore. Citations needed. I, for one, like apps.
- grandmczeb 8y ago> Nobody wants an app anymore. News to me. You sure you’re not just projecting your personal preference?
- josteink 8y agoIt’s clearly my personal preference, but also my experience that fewer and fewer in my social circles wants “yet another app” when there’s already a website which works fine. Games are the only exception. And I work with software. None of my colleagues wants to work with or test anything not strictly web-based.
- grandmczeb 8y ago> None of my colleagues wants to work with or test anything not strictly web-based. If that's true, I'd be willing to bet there's some extreme self-selection going on. Which is fine, but I'd be very careful about generalizing your experience outside of your immediate social circle.
- criddell 8y agoFor anything I use regularly, I'll choose a native app over a web site or web app every time because they typically consume less battery, cpu, memory, and bandwidth. They are usually also faster and a well written app is always going to feel better than one running in a web browser.
