Native mobile apps are optional for B2B startups in 2024  
Native mobile apps are becoming optional for B2B startups in 2024, with Progressive Web Applications (PWAs) emerging as a viable alternative. PWAs offer simplified development with one code base and one deployment path, making it easier for startups to enter the market without the need for a large native development team. The recent support for PWAs by Apple, including features like Add To Home Screen and Web Push Notifications, has further solidified their viability. As a result, it is now recommended that B2B startups prioritize web development first before considering native app development.
