Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is a Progressive Web App?
A PWA is a web application that uses modern web capabilities to deliver app-like experiences. It combines the reach of the web (accessible via URL, searchable) with features of native apps (offline functionality, push notifications, home screen installation).
Do PWAs work on iOS?
Yes! iOS has supported PWA features since iOS 11.3. However, iOS support is more limited than Android—no push notifications and some storage limitations. Despite this, PWAs still provide significant benefits on iOS.
Can PWAs replace native mobile apps?
For many use cases, yes! PWAs are perfect for content-heavy apps, e-commerce, news, social networks, and business tools. Native apps may still be better for games, apps requiring extensive hardware access, or complex multimedia processing.
How do PWAs work offline?
Service workers act as a network proxy, intercepting network requests and serving cached content when offline. We implement caching strategies that determine what content is cached and when it is updated.
Will my PWA be discoverable on Google?
Absolutely! Unlike native apps, PWAs are fully indexable by search engines. This is a huge advantage—users can discover your app through Google search, not just app stores.
How much storage do PWAs have?
PWAs can store significant data using IndexedDB and Cache API. Chrome allows up to 60% of free disk space. This is enough for most applications to cache content for offline use.
Can I monetize my PWA with ads?
Yes! You can integrate standard web advertising networks. However, ads may not display when users are offline unless specifically cached.
How do push notifications work in PWAs?
Push notifications use the Push API and Web Push Protocol. On Android and desktop, they work exactly like native app notifications. iOS currently does not support PWA push notifications.
