Comment on Please Don’t Make Me Download Another App | Our phones are being overrun
ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 1 month agoThis is the main reason why I seldom install anyone’s “app”.
Most of these apps aren’t true apps anyway, they’re just customized browsers that lead you to a website and are free to collect as much data from you and your phone as they want.
I’ll go on your website first if I have to and 9 / 10 I get what I want. Besides, I’ll only ever visit the service once or twice so I don’t need to install a permanent app on my phone for that.

Also desktop mode to circumvent those phone detection systems and trying to force an app.

Desktop mode plus zoom out on iOS, sometimes… then over to a desktop browser app when that falls. Sigh
