Completely agree. "Download our App!" is a huge red flag. It suggests at best that some VP at the company wanted to check a box and at worst that the company wants to harvest your sweet, sweet personal data and they cannot do so with a mere website.

There are some apps whose existence makes sense like Uber and turn-by-turn navigation but the vast majority of apps now should just be websites.
