I feel quite the opposite, most of the phone apps will likely to be thick client variants of the web apps, given that the hosts have so much power and storage available. Privacy concerns are gonna force this model where almost every activity having minimal network overhead. We are going back to the desktop app era, is what I feel.

Can't wait, to be honest. This era of everything as a service is great for developer convenience but is incredibly user-hostile in that it enables and encourages surveillance capitalism and the erosion of privacy.
