There are a couple reasons that compound together.
From the user’s perspective the native version can be faster, smoother, and more reliable than web. Part of the reason for this is that, on iOS at least, the functionality of web apps is deliberately held back by Apple in order to promote the App Store (where they earn a huge commission).
