Our apps could do better.
Limited bandwidth & speed → Reliability & UX
Too many apps to install & update → Lead gen & adoption
What do I need to know right now? → Engagement
ANYWHERE.
Consumers need to browse
Agents need to work
A PWA is a website that can:

What are push notifications?
• A message that pops up on the user's device
• Can be pushed from the server to the user even when the app isn't running
