Does iOS support PWAs yet? I'd have thought that PWAs would have all the features required for an email application at this point.

Apparently 20% of Apple's revenue comes from their marketplaces (music, apps, etc), but in terms of profit it's probably significantly higher since the costs ought to be much lower than their hardware.

So it seems like there's a decent chance that at least third of their profit could get wiped out by PWAs in the long run. You'd think they'd be treating developers a little better.

my understanding is that their on-device browser monopoly (Safari) cripples many capabilities of PWAs, like for instance push notifications.
