@jws the web app thing is newer due to Google's Progressive Web Apps. I'm not sure how sold I am on that.

@jws dev tooling as in?
They do have Ionic Native --> https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/

@jws apps. Apps, everywhere, by everyone!
Ionic 2 is a bit of a pain to learn, since it uses Angular 2 and Typescript cough cough Microsoft cruft cough.
But it's verryyyy rewarding to take the default Ionic examples, modify them a bit and throw them on your phone directly (or using the Ionic View app). Suddenly, that vast emptiness which you've only peered into, which is your phone's untapped potential, is open to you now.
I've got 2 apps which I use on and off - one for my liveblogging, which is just a form, and another which is a diary entry app. I'm working on a third app right now for my brother.
The best thing is that I don't need to bother with launching these apps if I want to use them personally. That's why I love coding in Ionic - it's quick to pick up and gets me using my phone for more than what's available in the app store.

@streakmachine Telia has always sounded like a good enough ISP. Though, I'm sure they're pretty bad internally, as every other big ISP is in the world…
