For the vast majority of use cases (e-commerce, services, content, client portals), yes. A PWA delivers 80 to 90% of a native app's features in a fraction of the time. The only limitations relate to access to certain advanced hardware sensors and organic visibility on the app stores.
Not automatically. Google Play accepts PWAs through the TWA (Trusted Web Activity) format. On iOS, users can add the PWA to their home screen from Safari. We support you through both approaches if store visibility is a goal.
Yes, on all modern devices. Chrome, Edge, and Samsung Internet offer full support. Safari on iOS supports key features since iOS 16.4+, including push notifications. We test compatibility on major devices before delivery.
Since iOS 16.4 (March 2023), Apple supports push notifications for PWAs installed on the home screen. This is a major advancement that makes PWAs truly comparable to native apps on iPhone.
Yes, this is one of the key advantages of a PWA over a native app. PWA content is indexable by Google just like any website. Combined with its high performance (Core Web Vitals), a well-built PWA naturally boosts your organic search rankings.
