Web page does not need opening? Interesting… Updates happen automatically now.

After installing it, you need to open it (ok, it's easy). Updates frequently require approval of new permissions (android).

But the alternative seems to be browser exposing APIs for all those permissions through Javascript and the end-user not really having any control over that. Perhaps I'm just naive about it, since I really don't do Javascript-based development, but this seems to be a worse idea than apps.

Web pages don't require uninstalling when you decide they're not worth it.
