Where does this fixation with downloading apps comes from?

231 views

I was trying to watch a show on a paid streaming service through my phone, but the webpage doesn’t let me use my browser, I have to download an app to run a video. Which got me thinking “why?” What is a good reason they won’t let me watch using my browser and would force me to download an app?

P.S. I can’t login right now, that’s why downloading the app is so inconvinient

User data, they want your data! Its all about you and kind of about them being able to say “Check out our cool new app! 1 Million people have downloaded it!” So its forcing you to be their marketing tool too.
