Mobile web apps were what Apple wanted developers to use, but they weren't new, let alone invented by Apple.

I didn't say Apple invented mobile web apps. I said Apple invented the ability to install mobile web apps on device.

I'm not 100% sure no other mobile OS allowed this before to be honest, but I'm pretty iOS is the one that popularized it.
