as a web app, it can be installed on any device that has a browser. Dev doesn't also need to publish his work in app/play stores which may require extra payment
And since it doesn’t have to be published in any app stores, it can be updated much more quickly and frequently.
Why does it take so long to push updates on AppStores?
generally Google play is rather fast, but Apple can be insanely slow sometimes. At my work we've had up to 6 working days to get approval of very minor updates. That's the reason why technologies like react native with over the air updates have gotten as prominent as it has.
As someone who leads an app development team I've started liking pwas more and more the last couple of years. Especially for apps that doesn't do more complex stuff than making api calls and rendering the result to the screen in the form of text.
