If this app actually sandboxes the indiv websites as the Developer mentioned, then this app is THE ONLY web wrapper currently in existence that does this. Even the other popular app H***** doesn't, and the developer of H***** mentioned that it's technically impossible to do. Web Apps does a great job in cache management as well. I removed the official Facebook app from my phone a long time ago, and this Web Apps allows me to "securely" use Facebook again, including FB messenger. Great job Toby!

Great, doesn't seem to have the same issues with connectivity Chrome has for some pwa sites. I use this mostly with home assistant, only wish is that it support push notifications by option per site, which the dev has an issue on GH for anyway. This is fairly limited in features, but the privacy and stability are worth it for me.
★★★★★
Good app BUT Apps should not have the ability to open stuff in my browser. It ruins the entire point when it starts jumping out to my default browser app on my phone. Please allow the user to block web apps from opening stuff in the browser of the phone.
★★☆☆☆
Beware: This app does not reliably maintain sandboxed environments. Data is leaking between sessions. This can be easily tested by pulling up two instances of the app in a multi window and logging into the same site with two accounts. The sessions will get confused. Two truly sandboxed instances will never mix up while browsing. These days it is difficult to pull off seamlessly without virtualization. You're better off using Firefox with Strict protection enabled (dynamic First Party Isolation)
★★☆☆☆
Old user agents Can't access WhatsApp Web on my tablet in this app because of outdated desktop user agent
★★☆☆☆
It doesn't work for me. Facebook's sign on page barely loads but nothing else. I was able to load Google News home but when I clicked a link I received a blank page.
