      I have doubts. Great website developers often make a half-assed app by wrapping the website in a crippled browser. The T-Mobile app is not even subtle about this, there was a URL bar in the version I last used.

        You’re talking about Cordova. Cordova can actually be pretty good, if it’s made well (for example, the Voyager Lemmy app is a Cordova app), but no, I make apps with native UIs.

        As a senior web developer who has dabbled in app development I completely agree with them. Even with my limited app development experience it’s much easier to make a good app than make your desktop website as good on all mobiles and all browsers.
