        I'm exploring UT for a few weeks now, and I still have to discover many things related to daily use of it :-), so I just came accross the "Webber" app. I would love to hear a bit from longer term users whether they prefer to use Webber to customize their phone, or if there is more value in creating WebApps that end up in the open store?
        I just created a few apps using Webber (e.g. Pocket from Mozilla which I like to use), and I think its a very useful approach. On Android I occsaionally do the same with the "Install" function in Firefox for Android - so I also wonder if the Webber approach could just be integrated into the Morph browser actually.

          @ra Webber is great if you rely on certain webapps. Creating webapps for the open store can make sense in some cases but you should be just fine with webber for most things. You can actually share a website from morph to webber to create a webapp.

            IMHO, Webber is best than overcrowding the Open Store with basic webapps.
            But one can create a more advanced webapp to work around some issues or adapt the CSS to a mobile device...

            But mainly I would say that Webber is easy and fast
            Webapps are useful in far less cases I think
            And Native apps are the best

              I find Webber very useful to create icons/links in the drawer for easy access to websites I look at frequently. It is quicker and more convenient than recalling bookmarks in the browser.

                Thanks everyone for the feedback!
                @aarontheissueguy Yes indeed the Morph-->Share to Webber approach implements the workflow that I'm used to from the other world 🙂
                @AppLee I agree that Native apps are the best option, but for many cases its probably not worth the effort if you easily get 80% of the "best possible" experience with a WebApp by just a few clicks.
