emphasis

much more and is increasingly device-understandable

➄ web apps – killing native apps?

➄ web apps – better than native apps?!

Web Apps are applications that run on
any device, and can be distributed
through any store or directly by the
developer.

➄ web apps – not better than native apps!
John wants to add a new feature to his smartphone
native app web app
• installed from app market • no install = no control?
= user control
• “get something for • no download = no value?
money” • no icon on home screen
• beautiful desktop icon • multi-purpose = ambiguous
• single purpose • Slow user response: launch
• instant user response: browser, find and launch web
tap and launch page
• can access all device • can’t access all device features
features (e.g. mic, cam, NFC)
• pixel-perfect, device • generic
specific

➄ web apps – are better than native apps!
Paul wants to play Scrabble™ on any of his devices and invite Mary to
native app web app
• leave context •
• download and install •
app • play game
• play game • invite to join game in real-
• share link to app via time
email •
• Install on each other
device (on supported
platforms only)

➄ web apps – open web apps marketplace

• Open and transparent for users and developers
• Run everywhere the web runs
apps belong to you
• Strong support for web developers
• No-strings-attached Identity
• Deeply integrate Identity and Social

discover and transact.

need
