--- Comment #78 from Ash Connell <deminetix at gmail.com> ---
I build applications for small to medium businesses to help them perform day to day work. These applications are mostly for internal purposes.

Almost all of my clients have no interest in building an app on the App Store and prefer the benefits that come with PWA's such as being able to access it from any platform, have instant updates and a smaller price point.

It's very common these PWA's need to notify users when important things happen within the company. When I explain to them that push notifications are available on every platform *except* iOS, almost all of them have had no issue replacing current workplace iOS devices with Android. The benefits of PWA outweigh using native *just* to get push notfications. This usually works out better for the business anyway as Android devices are more affordable and push notifications allow them to run their business processes with expediency.

I usually have to repeat this whole process with each new client so I would much prefer that iOS had Web Push, so that I can focus on building value for my clients instead of talking about the technical limitations of iOS.
