I keep hearing this very bad excuse. If that’s the only reason that developers make iOS apps, where are the developers who are making iOS apps and just telling Android users to go to the web?

How is it a "bad excuse?" it's literally true that Apple hobble PWAs compared to other platforms.

  Then why aren’t developers eschewing the Google Play Store and just telling users to use their website?

    Some revenue is better than no revenue. Doesn't mean some people can't be annoyed at what's basically a startup tax levied on them.

      What do you mean “some revenue”? The question is if PWAs are good enough on every other platform, why spend the development time and money to create apps? And most startups are creating B2B services where you pay for the service outside of the App Store.

        Actually you might be right, PWAs are insufficient on every platform, at least the major ones I've tried.
