So the problem appears to be ios in this case. I personally have 3 web apps on my android phones home screen and they offer a decent experience same as a native app. They are not processor or graphics intensive apps but the same applies for a lot of store apps

OTOH, on my Android devices I find "add to homescreen" web apps to feel janky and non-native.
I like React Native and apps written in it are just fine by me but the browser and the web doesn't compare in L&F or responsiveness. Maybe someday down the line, but not now.
This could also mean that Android native apps are just worse than iOS native apps.
