Pushing apps that could be PWA’s (no low level logic needed) is a security design concern.
I would further like to advocate for PWA’s because I believe they would be a safer sandbox to load apps.
In my understanding, PWA’s most likely do not have the problem of cut/copy vulnerabilities seen in previous ios versions and would be sandboxed away from future vulnerabilities accidentally added into the operating system.

PWA does not mean that everyone will go around the Apple store. You can simply list your app onto the app store for the best of both worlds. This is best for all parties, and maybe a few more signatures on Change.org or maybe .... an angry mob of programmers will unite ..... or Congress will realize that Apple is abusing their position in the market and ... what do you call it? demonopolize? #microsoft1999
And for good spirit and my 7 year old, #freeFortnite

What if we create an app that proxies push notifications for various apps? Is it possible to change the app logo per notification? I’d pay for that. I mean, I’d rather have the real deal, but... isn’t this whole thread related to the Free Fortnite movement? A big company choosing to restrict freedom within its platform? Isn’t the lack of this feature an extension of Apple’s lack of respect for the smaller developer?

Apparently voicing our opinion publicly is less effect than delivering it to their big board. So make sure to do both!

Title it what you may! Select WebKit and then Suggestion. And write away how this will help our users.
For me I don’t need any low level apis for the applications the Dubsado builds. We don’t need fancy emulation. And we don’t need to jump through the hoops of writing a second app just to achieve push notifications.
We need to be able to tell our users when they’ve received updates on projects and invoices and the various features we use.
Allowing/growing/and encouraging PWA’s doesn’t necessarily mean no one will use the App Store. PWA are great on Android, yet I still enjoy the app market there. But while on the topic, maybe another idea for the Feedback Assistant will be allowing for PWA’s to be listed on the App Store.

Yes, well said. Let's go Apple!

Push notifications for PWA would be a big step towards democratizing the app experience on iOS. It is difficult to maintain two codebases to run a web app and a native app. Any of the wrapper utils are just band aides. This would be a huge win for all. 10,000 +1’s to this thread.
