But outside of messaging, music and browsing the web. how many native apps do you/people actually use? Because I'm personally under the impression that this is what most people use their phone for (maybe play a game or two as well). tough this might also depend on the countries where I lived (and when). And some people also take pictures of course

Some people are big app users, but very few have a variety of niche apps installed. Those same people probably don't use computers for more than the 1% they are capable of doing. I think a vast majority still uses apps outside of messaging and music though, because social media exists. Instagram, Facebook, Twitter/X, TikTok, SnapChat are all apps and it's absolutely the case that they are better off being true native apps, which they are.

  > If you’re wondering “Is Instagram a native app?” or “Is Facebook a native app?”, the answer to both is no. They are both hybrid apps with numerous “native” features. https://www.mobileapps.com/blog/what-is-a-native-app https://www.mobileapps.com/blog/what-is-a-native-app
