Google says it’s no different than checking IDs at the airport.

    They haven’t been promoted or supported well until fairly recently. Also, Firefox is not compatible with PWAs but chrome, edge, and safari are.

      They’ve been well-supported for many years.

        Open Firefox and pin a PWA. I’ll wait.

            Firefox doesn’t have PWA support. They pulled it years ago.

              I don’t know about vanilla Firefox but I use IronFox and it works great so I suspect you’re wrong.
