@EdwardTorvalds Both. Idiot managers are pretty sure that, whatever else, they must have an App, or their business is incomplete.
Non-idiot managers recognize that an App would/will give them access to details about you that a website interface woudln't. Like your insurance app tracking your driving: http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/chi-allstate-smartphone-app-driver-habits-20140529-story.html
In short: there's no good reason to run an App when the web will do, unless you feel like selling or giving away data of obvious value.
Fuck those clowns.
