Apps you install from a link.
A PWA is a website built to behave like an app: it installs on your phone or computer, opens full-screen with its own icon, and can keep working offline — no app store required.
Why businesses choose PWAs
Installs from a link
No app store needed. Visitors add it to their home screen in one tap.
Feels like an app
Opens full-screen with its own icon, splash screen and fast launch.
One build, every device
The same app runs on iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac and Linux.
Instant updates
Fixes go live immediately, with no store review or user downloads.
Works on weak networks
Can cache key screens so it keeps working when signal drops.
Lower cost
Usually far cheaper and faster to build than separate native apps.
