Why?
Isn't browser enough for most cases?
Because webdevs are too lazy to keep their website working in more than one browser so they'd rather just bundle a chromium
that's what i've been wondering about myself
Culture of botnet. Apps can ask for plenty of permissions.
Webdevs can't handle the larger performance constraints of mobiles in general so they push their inefficient but native applications to your phone so they can be just as frivolous with your battery but deliver you an experience that you don't notice beyond the burning CPU you feel through the case.
And occasionally there's some UX improvements that they can do in an app. But that's certainly an afterthought.
Their API can just send relevant data instead of rendering CSS with every page load. Reduces usage on their end.
Desu?
Marketing.
That McDonalds icon in your home screen is cheap brand advertising.

Usually a good optimized site works better than a native app.

It isn't like they are doing it themselves. They just use a front-end framework for both design and functionality.

in a good browser you can block ads, tracers and say no to location requests.

You can do the same outside the browser as well
