+1 to this. Focusing on usecases would be great. ex: I wanted to see what features were available for your sheets module.

Was willing to spend 5 minutes on a walk. Tried the web app - ios safari is not supported :( downloaded the ios app and registered. Got a totally blank app - no onboarding, no template / samples, no obvious way to import from my existing google sheets to see how things scaled. I added a datasource and a few fields (which felt confusing) and my walk was over.

Google chrome is worse. Safari on iOS has native features like auto-filling verification codes.

May I please bring you to the premise where I dont want any verification codes.

I have my FUCKING imei. NSA and every cell tower in the universe can spy on me.

I click a FN link - EVERY DATA LLM KNOWS WHO I AM.

There is only one off-grid option thats not monetized.

EVERY other can spy on you as well.

Google Chrome can't even use it's rendering engine on iOS, you're comparing WebView implimentations (which Apple will always be superior at... since they control the OS and every API entitlement).

Antitrust regulation says what?

Eh what? Mobile safari on iOS is surely something like 20-30% of the market.
