I have built a web app for streaming music (for personal use/satisfaction) that i primarily use as a mobile PWA.
PWA is sort of like if you tied an electron app to the user's installed browser, so you are still going to have browser specific quirks. Not all browsers support installing a PWA (most notably for me, safari on macos).
On mobile (especially iOS) PWA can have considerable limitations compared to a traditional app, but less limited than running the app "as a websute". Local storage limits come to mind. I believe a PWA on iOS can only store 50mb?
Distributing it is in theory VERY easy. but its not a common way that users install apps, so it comes with more explanation than simply saying "download from the App store".
React native is a whole other thing entirely, and is not limited to simply being an embedded website in a browser wrapper.
If there already exists a web version of the application, then the saved effort might be worth these quirks, but if its a greenfield project I'm not sure the "Ease of development" actually beats something like React Native.
