Interesting. I didn't know it was possible to have a PWA in the app store. How does that work?

you wrap the web app in a shell of a native app with a web browser. it can pass through local hardware like microphone camera usb bluetooth etc. phonegap was a popular tool for this what 10+ years ago.

Not bad. The color options are a bit intense, but a good start, keep it up!

I couldn't find it on my phone's playstore, so had to install it via that web link, but everything looks good so far.

Any way to use a compact cards view in the full app? The PWA has this option but I don't see it in the dedicated app.
