If only PWA were not made invisible by Apple. The install button has been moved voluntarily to the share menu.

The UE should make it mandatory to permit PWA install popups on all platforms.

Such problems wouldn't arise, because this app could be installable as a cached Web app. A native mobile application could be installed only for specific functionalities.

"It works better in the app?". No thanks. In 99.95% of cases the reasons for that popup are predatory, not in the interest of the user.

Every slop website would then repeatedly try to pop up and install button.
