> PWA’s were good enough, why bother writing native apps for Android?

same reason people write native apps on iOS

It's easier to track users, especially those users rich enough to buy high end phones and that will probably spend more money and the ROI is higher.

They also make PWAS to gain user base on low end phones and emerging markets.

So most companies aren’t using PWAs to save money on Android and probably wouldn’t on iOS either....
