It's restricted to Safari on the iPhone, the language cannot be changed, the demo cannot launch, and I have an iPhone for a reason, I know that I don't like Android and Samsung. The fact that it's broken confirms it. I don't know what they are trying to do with this.

The demo does work, though? Apple has some weird requirements about having to install apps to the home screen (through the share menu, of all places) before they can go full screen, but once you get around that it works fine.

I'm not sure what the point of trying it is if you already know beforehand that you're going to hate it.

A webapp being broken on an iPhone is proof that android sucks?

[markeibes]

A company launching something broken is proof of their poor quality control.

[kichimi]

But it works, I just tried it.

It’s janky, half complete and shows nothing but an empty shell.

I’ve seen better OS “emulations” on HN made by devs in their free time.

A trashy web app being broken confirms you dont like android?

[wiseowise]

Half-assed ecosystem and OS is the reason why I left for iOS.

So yeah, they couldn’t even make it proper, which reinforces my belief.

[KomoD]

Samsung couldn't make a proper web app so therefore Android sucks, love that logic

[wiseowise]

Samsung is one of Android vendors.

If the biggest vendor can’t make it right, who can?

I love Android, it’s a great scaffold to base your product on, but all implementations just suck.

will only launch if you add it to the home screen.

Ironically this option does not exist for me. Pretty much sums up Apple's desired usage level of PWA: Almost 0. Of course it can be caused by a Samsung issue, but this UI is generally so well hidden because they don't want people to use it.

It works fine.
