That's true, I forgot you could can run their app environment, aka firefox, on Android. Still won't help iOS though.
I understand they are submitting them for standardization, but do you really think Apple is going to implement a standard which competes with their app store?
- graue 14y agoMaybe not in the short run. We'll see. But if Apple decides not to implement an open standard for business reasons, that doesn't make said standard not open.
- callahad 14y agoWell, Mobile Safari uses Webkit, which both Apple and Google are working on (amongst others), and both have been pretty darn good about supporting web standards. Hell, Microsoft's gotten the religion, too. If the APIs are useful, and make it through the W3C, then I'd be surprised if they didn't show up in Webkit, and thus on iOS and Android. The Vibration API made it in, after all: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72010 https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72010
