"However, some websites are specially written to function pretty much like apps"

that's funny, because I've always thought a lot of apps behave pretty much like a website and the app is unnecessary.

A lot of app store apps are actually just web apps packaged to be downloadable from app stores!

But web apps don't give Apple or Google any money or control, so they tend to get downplayed. It's also harder to access a user's data from a web app than an app store app, so companies who want to spy on their users do it through app store apps.
