apps Google putting more into Progressive Web App's

[Internet.Domains]

As some have predicted for some time, Google is pushing Progressive Web Apps over native apps. The evidence can be found in the post below.

The big question, what does this mean for the .app domain extension?


"Upcoming changes to the AdSense mobile experience
Monday, July 15, 2019
The web is mobile.

Nearly 70% of AdSense audiences experience the web on mobile devices. With new mobile web technologies such as responsive mobile sites, Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) and Progressive Web Apps (PWA) the mobile web works better and faster than ever.

We understand that using AdSense on the go is important to you. More than a third of our users access AdSense from mobile devices and this is an area where we continue to invest.

Our vision is an AdSense that does more to keep your account healthy, letting you focus on creating great content, and comes to you when issues or opportunities need your attention.

With this in mind, we have reviewed our mobile strategy. As a result, we will be focusing our investment on the AdSense mobile web interface and sunsetting the current iOS and Android apps. By investing in a common web application that supports all platforms, we will be able to deliver AdSense features optimized for mobile much faster than we can today.

Later this year we will announce improvements to the AdSense mobile web interface. The AdSense Android and iOS apps will be deprecated in the coming months, and will be discontinued and removed from the app stores by the end of 2019.

Like our publishers who have built their businesses around the mobile web, we look forward to leveraging great new web technologies to deliver an even better, more automated, and more useful mobile experience. Stay tuned for further announcements throughout the rest of the year."

I wish there was open source Linux like push for cell OS’s and all search engines, so as to devalue Google’s control.

Just took some time-out to read up on the OS being worked on by Samsung and others, and it is being developed by the Linux Foundation:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tizen

Reports are that the largest Asian smartphone makers, which dominate worldwide smartphone sales, are developing their own Linux and HTML5 based OS's, in part due to threats of bans from Western governments to using Western technologies in their jurisdictions. G's move toward Web-based app development and away from native apps looks like a preemptive response. Without the Asian mobile industry's support, Android is effectively finished.

Thanks. Interesting.....Google can have complete control and dominance with PWA's as they control search and have a major influence with monetization of content. With PWA's, Google does not lose. They will be pumping it as a result....IMO

Rise of PWA, rise of .app
