    Shopping apps aren’t really needed, I mean people could use the websites instead

    You could say the same thing for probably half the apps in the app stores, and yet people keep installing the apps. On iPhones, I think part of it is the fact that iOS had such poor support for PWAs.

      more control and better monetization was probably the reason, y’know so apple can get that unfair cut.
