MODERATORS
Maybe for some companies. For others the main draw card is push notifications and a big shiny icon for the product on your phone. Also, just FOMO when every other company has an app.
that's also doable on the modern web without an app. service workers go brrr
in fact, the same companies do this all the time on their desktop sites, because no one's gonna install kfc.exe to order some chicken
Apps without a bunch of trackers are few and far inbetween
