It could, yes. But the user experience and the amazing level of usability will degrade, and I would move to another product.

And we've come full circle!

> But as a web dev community we need to stand firm and build PWAs regardless. If we treat pwas on iOS like we did Internet explorer (i.e. giving it special attention and hack solutions as opposed to just not developing for it) we will lose the fight.

Comeon, it’s a todo app, being native provides marginal benefits over its functionality.

Except that it feels smoother (the UI, animations, UX) instead of a web app, and is amazingly fast/reactive?
