Since I learned about PWA, I have always thought it is a very good and useful web technology. Has your product website implemented it?

Yes, we have integrated PWA on our incoming app. It's a great option for most hybrid apps, and they are accepted on App Store, Google Play and Azure Marketplace too.

I guess if you dont have substanitial funds, going for pwa is a wise choice even for launching the early version on App Store! This will help gain some traction quick, build and deploy fast without the need for release management, get feedback fast and eventually quick learning and pivot to reach some kind of feedback or PMF or raise some funds to work on the feedbackS
@mahdibeee I am more focused on the ease of use and performance improvements it provides, making the web site closer to the app experience.
@keepchen Well its kinda of obvious that going native (Dont mean React Native) provides the best experience in terms of ease of use and performance. Not only the interactions are different and hard to replicate but some of your native accesses can be limited as well. The Pwa is run within Safari Webview which is not that much optimised for native app framework. However again as I said, its a trade off. Currently in the early stage of release, we are also working on Pwa and after either good traction or fundraising, will start going Native.
@mahdibeee Yes,you are right!
Launching soon!
Yes! we have...
It helps you market or you can say present your product better as you give them a choice to install the PWA in their device. From the marketing side it increase the visibility of your product in daily of the user.
What do you think about it?
@sahil_mahalley Pretty agree!
Yup, PWAs are the way to go for sure. We recently rebuilt our e-commerce site as a PWA and saw huge bumps in conversion rates and engagement, especially on mobile. Highly recommend Workbox by Google for implementing PWA features like offline caching, background sync, and push notifications. Game changer! 🚀
Yes, many companies have integrated Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) into their product websites to enhance the user experience, performance, and engagement. Some notable examples include:
1. Twitter - Twitter Lite is a PWA that provides a fast and data-efficient experience on mobile devices. It is highly responsive and offers offline functionality, push notifications, and other features typical of native apps.
2. Pinterest - Pinterest increased engagement by building a PWA, which improved user retention and performance, especially for those on slow networks or low-end devices.
3. Starbucks - Starbucks created a PWA for ordering online, allowing customers to browse the menu, customize their orders, and complete purchases offline. Their PWA has been highly successful in markets with limited access to high-speed data.
4. Uber - Uber’s PWA was designed to make booking rides as fast as possible, even on 2G networks. It’s lightweight and works well in areas with limited connectivity.
5. Forbes - Forbes built a PWA to improve mobile web performance, and it resulted in faster load times, better user engagement, and higher revenue through ads.
6. Alibaba - Alibaba’s PWA improved conversion rates by offering a faster and more app-like experience on the mobile web, especially in markets where data connectivity can be unreliable.
These companies implemented PWAs to provide their users with smoother, more efficient interactions, especially on mobile devices. PWAs blend the best of web and native apps, offering features like offline access, push notifications, and faster load times, making them a popular choice for enhancing product websites.
