You still can do that with PWAs in Android. Let's see for how long.

Do you have a single friend who isn't a programmer who has installed a PWA in the last two years?
Game streaming services like GeForce Now, Xbox Live, Amazon Luna use PWAs for iOS/iPad support, used by a lot of ordinary users. They're not in AppStore because of incompatibility with Apple rules.
I use 3CX VOIP app as a PWA daily, I'm just an IT worker.

And I wonder when can we stop lying to ourselves pretending "web"-apps are real (native) apps?
Why?
Can you create and run a service that starts when phone is turned on, with a PWA app? Usecase is a backup daemon.
