Google says it’s no different than checking IDs at the airport.

    You might think so but PWAs have been around for a long time and seen very little adoption.

      They haven’t been promoted or supported well until fairly recently. Also, Firefox is not compatible with PWAs but chrome, edge, and safari are.

        They’ve been well-supported for many years.

          Open Firefox and pin a PWA. I’ll wait.

            Wait for what? I’ve done this many times.

              Firefox doesn’t have PWA support. They pulled it years ago.

                I don’t know about vanilla Firefox but I use IronFox and it works great so I suspect you’re wrong.

                  Holy crap, Firefox put it back in! https://www.askvg.com/enable-or-disable-pwa-support-and-add-tab-to-taskbar-button-in-firefox/
