Native apps are really poor at collaboration and composition. School districts around the world are effortlessly doing distance learning by giving parents and kids URLs, which open Web based editors, science experiments, music and art 'web apps', etc all at one click, without worry about whether the kids own iPhones or Android, or desktops, and whether or not they can install it, or have it installed.
Any solution that requires you to write a multipage doc for parents and kids, to go follow two different sets of rules depending on devices and install 2 dozen apps, just so they can take class at home, is a non-starter for school districts.
A link is all you need with the Web for most things. No install. No uninstall. No worry about OS.
Ever since the fanboyism between mobile platforms started, people have started worshipping at the church of the native app, which is say, before the Web once broke us away finally from Windows, and now we're back asking people to install heavyweight native apps for things like "Order a Burger" or "Pay a Parking Meter"
