“Change is the only constant.” You should not fight against innovation. The only way to embrace disruption is to adapt to the new and go with the flow. First the desktop, then the mobile devices, followed by the app ramp, now comes the gen of progressive web apps. Check out this presentation which talks about the hottest 6 reasons why Progressive Web Apps will be the future of apps.

1. TOP 6 REASONS
PROGRESSIVE WEB APPS WILL BE THE
FUTURE OF APPS

2. First the desktop, then the mobile devices, followed by the app
ramp, now comes the gen of progressive web apps.
“Change is the only constant.”
You should not fight against innovation. The only
way to embrace disruption is to adapt to the new
and go with the flow.

3. Initially, when mobile gained momentum, people had to create separate
mobile websites which catered to the mobile needs, like more interactive and
less content, than the desktop versions.
But, along with this came the problem of incurring huge maintenance
cost for both the websites. We eventually stepped into the era of
responsive web design, but again, it comes with its own set of
limitations.
Though the native apps continue to prevail, we will definitely witness
progressive web apps making their way into the world of websites eradicating
the problems of native apps, as well as, responsive web designs.

4. Check out the reasons why PWAs are here
to stay and dominate the upcoming market!

5. 1
SPEED
The PWAs are incredibly fast when it comes to
their speed. The Service workers, JavaScripts run
separately from the main web thread, allowing the
PWAs to load immediately, irrespective of the poor
connection.
PWAs have smoother animations and navigation,
and gives a perfect illusion of being in a native
app.

6. 2
OFFLINE ACCESS ENABLED
The service workers used, make use of the Catch
and Fetch APIs to load your PWAs instantly. This
also enables to load the PWA offline from the
home screen.
Even if a user does not have access to the
internet, the PWA is still capable to send
background updates and push notifications to the
user.

7. 3
SUPERIOR CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT
While accessing the websites which have the
PWA features prompts the user to allow
sending notifications. It is a powerful concept,
especially for the social networking websites.
The user can allow sending notifications by
simply tapping on ‘allow’ and this will prevail
even when the user is not looking at the page.
Chrome has also incorporated the function of
‘Add to home screen’.

8. 4
REAL-TIME DISCOVERY
The most amazing thing about PWA is that
customers have the power to discover them as
per their relevance of work. Something as simple
as a Google search might pull up your website
and successfully launch the visitor into your PWA.
One of the key benefits of working this way is that
it also maximizes the reachable audience as you
are piggybacking the SEO efforts of your website
here.

9. 5
NO MIDDLE MAN APP STORE
In case of PWAs, you do not need to register with
Apple or Google. A major slowdown that occurs in
case of native apps is that you have to deal with
app stores.
After developing a native app, you have to get
your account registered with the app store and
pay a certain amount for each download and in-
app purchases.

10. 6
SUPERB USER EXPERIENCE
The service workers definitely help in enhancing
UX. The users who visit through the browser enjoy
the app-like experience, and on the other hand,
when they come back to the same page, it loads
instantly.
It is true even in the case of slow networks. PWAs
are the ones which combine the best features of
the app, along with the added advantage of the
broad reach of the web.
