Listing possible examples does not prove your point.

Ah neat, so Android users all don't use the play store and their bank apps and robot apps and car apps all are PWAs, right? Something something No It's Actually Apple's Fault. Good god.

>You just don't think the rest of us should have it.

I have repeatedly observed the actual market here in actual reality. You have repeatedly somehow made it personal.

This clearly is a futile discussion. Have a nice day.

It disproves yours that the "vast majority" of apps don't use functionality exposed as PWA APIs.

> Something something No It's Actually Apple's Fault

It's indeed Apple's fault that those PWA APIs don't work in Safari, yes. I didn't think this was a disputed point. And again I repeat: your objection isn't technical, you just don't like the idea of portable web apps working on iOS.

I take it you're not a stats major.

A tiny percentage of apps use features that aren't available in Safari, ergo ipso sum, 100% of apps cannot use PWAs on any platform. Do you understand how utterly nonsensical this noise is?

I understand this thread is overwhelmingly dominated by rhetorics, seemingly by people who have zero experience in the industry, so have your nonsense.

> your objection isn't technical, you just don't like the idea of portable web apps working on iOS.

Your take is laughably nonsensical.
