I've reviewed some of the previous closed issues and there isn't that much of a discussion for a native iOS app.

Has this been discussed before and the benefits of a native app vs the PWA?

I know currently for iOS, the biggest drawback for the PWA is that 'keep screen awake' does not work due to a safari bug / limitation that has been known for some time but Apple has not fixed / integrated it into iOS Safari.

The workaround that I know is NOT using the PWA and just a standard Safari tab, which then allows for 'keep screen awake' to function properly.
