Choose the platform around tasks, devices and usage conditions. Store distribution, browser access and phone capabilities should be assessed alongside the cost of maintaining the solution.
What is a web app, and where does a PWA fit?
A web app uses web technologies. A PWA adds capabilities such as installation in supported settings, with behaviour depending on the browser and device. web.dev's documentation explains these possibilities. Do not assume identical feature support across all phones.
When should iOS and Android apps be considered?
When store distribution or particular mobile features and journeys matter to the service. List concrete needs and test them on target devices. Technology selection should follow that assessment, including how updates will be delivered.
Does the administrative team need the same interface?
It may need a browser-based dashboard with tables, filters and frequent desktop operations. Customers may need a simple phone journey. Both can share data and rules without making everyone use identical screens.
How can Kapta help with the decision?
Bring three priority tasks, the devices used and network conditions. Request a comparison covering limitations, maintenance and essential feature tests. Validate dependencies that could change the platform decision first.
