- User is worried the app will be rejected as a thin WebView wrapper
- User needs a migration plan from web-only to app-store-ready mobile
- User asks about native permissions, safe areas, offline support, account deletion, mobile billing, or store testing for a converted web app
Community Lessons
Use the Reddit discussion as the framing: the basic Capacitor wrapper is usually the easy part; store approval and mobile polish are the hard parts.
Prioritize these risks before celebrating a successful native build:
