Awesome, I'm not the only one that hates apps that are nothing more than a browser for a single website. What are people thinking, that we like to have a separate app for every website we enjoy visiting? Have they actually ever used a smartphone/tablet?

If your website links to other sites and you load that in Safari again? Guess what, you just lost me. I'm not going to close Safari and load your app again, whereas closing a new tab would have returned me to your site. The same thing happens when your in-app browser just isn't up to scratch: I'll have to copy-paste the address into Safari and I'm annoyed and gone.
