      Yes to that!! ☝️☝️ Thanks so much for clarifying. Imitation on the web is at no cost to users vs a $1.99 cover charge for what was always meant to be free.

      My concern is somewhat different (the pay-for version is clearly not going to "win" vs. a free TWA version); it's more the relative insecurity. What the heck is in those 11MiB?

      And if we could use the fact that the TWA pairs to the website and show that in Play.... "Paired with http://proxx.app ". Could be super useful for brands. This app is paired with http://Amazon.com ? Oh it is the real one!

      That doesn't help much, though, because the ones that aren't paired won't say "this isn't paired", so there's nothing there to show people there's a more "official" version. And it's entirely reasonable that someone might take, say, 2048 and publish an app of it; that's allowed.

      I think all of this is the best possible argument for restricting 3p content (not ads) to CCT.

      "3p" = third party CCT = Chrome Custom Tabs (akin to SFSafariViewController on iOS)

      Then... I don't understand how this would help with someone taking open source code and bundling it into a native app which is just a webview, at all.

      It'll help in the cases where someone is just hot-loading with a WebView (which I'd give 50/50 odds here)

      Hang on, you're suggesting that shipping an apk which just loads a URL should be flat-out banned? That's not "third party".

      Nope, I'm saying TWAs provide this and come with attestation (via digital asset links) and for those without DLA attestation, the URL should be shown (as with CCT)

          Ah, that seems reasonable. Although I'm not sure how it'd work; I mean, lots of people embed a webview for part but not all of their UI. That might be problematic.

          They can as long as they control the target URL and can add a signed digital asset link:https://developers.google.com/digital-asset-links/v1/getting-started …
