The technology they chose to power the experience, Rainway, seems to have needed a huge amount of work to get good enough for commercial adoption.

There have been large differences between app vs browser vs xbox streaming, too.

I wonder if this is a part of the quality difference. I've only used the app version, never the web.

It's been about a year since I last used it. Back then Halo worked better through a browser and the app was very flaky. I wound up getting an xbox console and the experience with streaming on the console has been pretty good. All over wifi AC1600.
