Tricky question. They start as web apps since they're built with mostly web technologies, but then they're compiled as native apps with native components and they don't run in the browser. So, I'd lean towards "no" -- they're not web apps at runtime.

React Native apps do not use web technologies.

I guess we can agree to disagree -- I consider JavaScript a web technology.

That depends on what you include in your definition of web technologies. React and Javascript at this point mostly fall under mine.
