Right, I understand that part, but it still sounds like it converts your site into a native app. If I then made a change to the site, I would have to do the whole process over again. I'm looking for something that points to the site, so I can update the site all I want without having to change the app at all.

I believe you can have it load dynamic content. For example, I made an app that had a pretty much static front page, then the other pages loaded RSS feeds. Ajax and jQuery are you friends if you decided to go that route. Otherwise, what would be the point of having an app that just points to a webpage?

Basically, I'm trying to appease higher ups who insist that we need an app, but dont understand all the complexities about maintaining separate codebases, app store approval process, etc... As long as there is something installable in the app store, they're happy. And I can code the site in such a way as to mimic a native app, so the end user wont know the difference.
