Progressive Web Apps (PWA)

Frequently asked questions

10 answers about this service. More on the full FAQ page.

What is a progressive web app (PWA)?

A PWA is a website that behaves like an app: it can be installed on a phone or computer, loads fast, keeps working with a poor connection and can send notifications.

How is a PWA different from a native app or a regular website?

Unlike a regular site, a PWA installs and works offline. Unlike a native mobile app, it runs from one codebase in the browser, with no app-store approval.

Do my customers need an app store?

No. People can add a PWA to their home screen straight from the browser, with no store account or approval process.

Can a PWA work offline?

Yes. We decide with you which screens and data should keep working with a poor connection or none at all.

Can a PWA send push notifications?

Yes, where the device and browser allow it. We'll tell you plainly what's supported for the devices your customers use.

Can you turn my existing website into a PWA?

Often, yes. We can add installability and offline support to the site you already have. If it needs a rebuild first, see our web design and development service.

Will a PWA still show up in search?

Yes, PWA pages can be found and indexed by search engines. To strengthen visibility, including AEO and voice search, see digital marketing.

How much does a PWA cost?

We provide custom quotes only. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a progressive web app. The cost depends on what you need, and we shape the scope to fit your budget. Tell us your goals and a budget range through the contact form or call (224) 457-0242, and we'll put together a quote built around you.

How are updates delivered?

New versions reach everyone at once, with no store review. Customers always have the latest version.

When should I choose a native app instead?

When you need heavy device features or the particular experience of the app stores. We'll tell you plainly if that's you. See mobile applications.
