I have an app for programming my chicken coop. My 401k company just created an app for onboarding new participants.
These should have been mobile friendly webpages.
You must log in or register to comment.
Often, the apps are there just to collect ad information for you in a way browsers don’t allow.
Ding ding ding. It’s all about the tracking data. Also, notifications. They want to be able to buzz you with spam, to remind you that the app exists.
I rather have an app and a way to control the chicken coop offline that depend on the internet connection to whether my chicken coop works or not. That is in my opinion a right place for an app instead of a website.
Most online services don’t need an app though.
