- ArchOversight 5y agoThere's a whole range of things that an app can do/infer on a system that a web page in a browser can't. Things like processes that are running, RAM, battery life, and more.
- dyingkneepad 5y agoThere's a million things they can do. Permissions aren't that fine-grained, and the apps always have ways to infer a lot of stuff. Heck, they can even make background tasks, while if it's a website I know that if I close the tab your tool is gone.
