    No, it revolves around showing you more ads.

    Someone had to go to the effort to detect a mobile browser and force them into the app.

      Detecting a mobile browser is easier than making every feature on your site mobile responsive, and confirming its a good mobile experience. Every add they show in the app could be shown in the browser, though I guess they would get access to notifications if that’s the case.
