Since when it became fashionable to use a wrapper of your web site? "Because the app runs natively on your desktop, you'll have support for native desktop notifications, better keyboard shortcuts, and more." I think Firefox is perfectly capable of doing any of those. I just hate it someone comes up and says 'Look we built a native app' I'm sorry but no you haven't! If I wanted to use your web page I can do that I don't need you to wrap it and ship it as a native app. Disappointed.

This app is so native neither CMD + W nor CMD + SHIFT + W closes the Whatsapp window - yay!
Alt+F4 works perfectly.
You're using Windows, I believe?
Yup.
