Apple being motivated by improving security are BS, and it pains me te see people in this forum falling for it or reapeating this.
There is a great tool to increase security: the browser and its sandbox. You don't need to install anything fishy on your phone, and the sandbox rights coukd be sufficient for many apps.
But as an example, Apple denies the full screen feature for websites and even PWA... only installed ones. There's no good reason except favoring apps/appstore. For security? Works great on Android.
And you cannot use a third party browser, since they forbid that (all are Safari based)
