High end or low end it doesn't matter. Poorly engineered is poorly engineered regardless. High end phones with lots of storage can (for now) get away with running apps that take up 2x more space than they need to. For an analogous problem try running poorly coded apps on old hardware, looking at you MS teams or zoom.
- AnotherGoodName 4y agoSure but I've witnessed poor engineering from trying to keep app size down. A great example is 'make that feature entirely as a WebView to our site so we don't increase app size'.
- _aavaa_ 4y agoWell hold on. That seems to be begging the question. If a whole feature can be replaced by a web view (and the site is already there), is an app actually required?

- Someone 4y ago“A feature can be implemented as a web view” doesn’t imply “All features can be implemented as a web view” Some of the other features may require an app.
- AnotherGoodName 4y agoThe answer is the feature can't effectively be a WebView. Which is the entire problem here.
