I heard the main dev has some sick fascination with is very dedicated to PWA.
I hope it stays PWA.
Writing a native app, and not just a web wrapper, is a different skillset to writing a PWA. It’s not a quick conversion, it’s a whole new app from scratch and everything would be rewritten.
This is a superb PWA, and web apps will get better in each iOS release.
There are plenty of native apps to choose from if you want one.
Actually, as I understand it, wefwef is built using the Ionic framework, which has a really handy tool called Capacitor that lets you port over a web app to native really easily. It’s pretty neat!

It doesn’t make a webapp a “native” app. It would still be exactly the same web based technologies - still a very fancy website. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. As wefwef is amazing

That’s exactly why I want. It runs pretty smooth anyway, so it’s not really a problem that it’s a webapp.
web only.
Unfortunately, PWA have a limit of only 50 MB storage on your device. Not sure what this means for wefwef’s ability to store and show content, or to grow features over time.
I’m also curious if haptics can be implemented in a PWA. I’ve seen conflicting info.
