My web app doesn't need installing, can be shared with a link, works the same on any device.

..., will break with new browser releases, will have you regularly keep your precious shitload of JavaScript libraries up-to-date if you care about major security problems, will probably be not usable by blind/visually impaired users because screenreaders can't do JavaScript too well, will always look and feel like alien (= non-native) software, artificially limits your freedom in terms of design and resource usage, ... :-)

You can write cross-platform applications in modern languages, including "mobile apps", by the way. They'll be native.
