There are exceptions. For example in fintech or anything in finance that requires trust, you want to seem bigger than you are. In contrast to OP, I’ve lost customers in the early days when they found out I was a solo founder. It’s more “normal” to share your financial data with huge companies who don’t care about you, but it’s scary to give it to “some guy”.
- jmkni 1y agoThis is a good point. I was involved in one startup in particular where "trust" was important. They didn't understand why I was pushing to build a native Android/iOS app and have it on the app store, as opposed to a PWA. It's because, like it or not, having an app on the app store makes you look legitimate, it makes you look like a real company. It was a pain in the ass, a PWA would have been way easier, but I still maintain it was the right call.
- joseda-hg 1y agoI mean, if you only wanted it for credibility, couldn't you just wrap the PWA and publish it to the playstore? Not saying it wasn't right to actually build the app, but you could have sidestepped the issue if that wasn't the priority
