  1. Does your website have a Progressive Web App (PWA)? The modern-day apps that are either available on web platforms or native devices have made it extremely convenient for us to harness the full potential of technology and make our lives easier. You have the expansive range and reachability of web-based applications that can instantly update themselves with the latest trends, and then there are native applications that comfortably sit on your devices and provide a cohesive experience, even without a good network connection. So, on the one hand, we have the reliability and connectivity that is provided by native applications and a wide reach that can help you instantly connect with a wider audience. But, what if you can have an application that can perform both of these tasks? Leading web development companies have brought their most capable minds together and came up with Progressive Web Apps as a solution for this particular necessity.

  2. What exactly is a Progressive Web App (PWA) Progressive Web Apps are enhanced applications that are built with contemporary Application Programming Interface (API) software to provide your native applications a wider range. They provide the capabilities, reliability, and installability of platform-specific apps and integrate them with the wide range and reach of web applications. It’s kind of like the best of both worlds. In recent years, there has been a significant surge of PWA usage by custom software development companies who are trying to provide their clients with the best-performing apps. There are certain requirements that an application needs to meet in order to be deemed as a PWA: ● It has to be progressive, which means it should be compatible with all kinds of devices and operating platforms, old and new. It should tend to the basic needs when it comes to old browsers and fully functional with the latest platforms. ● Being a progressive web app that provides a web-based reach, it should be discoverable throughout all search engines. ● It should be installable so that it is readily available. The users should be able to add the application to their home screen or app launcher. ● The application should be highly linkable, which means it should be shareable by sending just the URL. It should instantly reload and retain its state when the user runs the URL. ● It should have connectivity independence. The application should be able to work with poor network connection, or even when it’s offline. ● It should have an app-like appearance. It should look like native applications that can work with minimal page refreshes.

  3. ● The application should be re-engageable. That means the user should be able to easily reuse the app. Also, the application should provide push notifications. ● Its UI should be responsive to the device’s screen size and form factor so that it is compatible with phones, tablets, TVs, laptops, computers, etc. ● And last but not least, it should be safe. Considering that it has a web-based reach, it is also vulnerable to be infested by third parties. Hence, it should be hosted over HTTPS so that the data is secured. Why should you implement Progressive Web App? Studies have shown that, on average, an application can lose about 20% of its user base for every step that is added between the first contact of the application to the moment it is functional. However, with PWAs, the users can immediately start using the application from the moment your user stumbles upon the application. Along with that, PWAs provide a wide range of benefits that smartly integrate the best aspects of native applications and web applications: ● PWAs provide instant loading of your pages after the first use. In addition, the dedicated and highly powerful caching provided by them can drastically decrease the loading time and provide you with seamless performance every time. ● While native applications might ask the user to re-download the application multiple times, even for incorporating minute changes, PWA makes that system obsolete. It has the ability to update only the changed content in the application and provide you a more efficient updating feature. ● It can put your application out there and make it easier for your target audience to find it. PWAs perform extremely well on all search engines and offer condensed and comprehensive metadata to instantly provide your users with special capabilities.

  4. ● Along with the high-performing functionality of web applications, it can help you connect with your audience just like a native application. It can constantly communicate and re-engage with the user and provide dedicated push notifications that can substantially improve your relations with the target demography and increase the conversion rate. ● Incorporating a PWA mechanism to develop your application can provide a certain amount of network independence. You can easily revisit a site and browse through the content even if there is no network available. With the help of a strong Cache API and Web Storage features, whatever content the user has browsed through once will get added to the cache memory, which can be archived and used instantaneously. ● Having a PWA mechanism ensures that your application will be functional on all kinds of browsers. It can shine and shop its true potential on fully capable browsers and assure an acceptable experience when it comes to less capable or old browsers. Conclusion Progressive Web Apps are an ingenious range of applications that can truly expand your reach and help you deliver a comprehensive application at the click of a button. Companies that have incorporated them have never looked back, as PWAs have drastically improved their functionality and productivity. For example, Twitter experienced a substantial increase of 65% in pages per session, decreased its bounce rate by 20%, along with making its app 97% smaller! That’s an astonishing achievement. If you want to see such drastic changes in your application, Perception is here to help you with that.
