12/04/2023, 4:41 AMHmm I don’t know a ton about PWAs but LiveKit should run fine in a mobile browser, since we just rely on the browser’s WebRTC implementation

12/04/2023, 5:45 AMIt would certainly save a lot of work and make the app better (no need to switch to a native one), but I remember seeing a comment here somewhere that a native one would be preferred.

12/04/2023, 10:28 AMHi @thankful-keyboard-4889, If I remember correctly, a major drawback of a PWA to a native app is that permissions are session based and therefore you (or your users) will have to grant video and microphone permissions quite often.

12/04/2023, 10:33 AMThere is a pretty nice PWA to test this quickly: https://whatpwacando.today/
Install it as a PWA and then try the video example, reload and you will be asked for video permissions again.
Depending on your application, this could be a deal breaker and something like Flutter might be a better fit for you.

12/04/2023, 10:35 AMThanks, will try!

12/04/2023, 1:16 PMWell, it worked on Android, on iOS it kept asking after every reload. I guess I could still go with the PWA/web/browser version of LiveKit, unless someone has an objection.
