Most is maybe not the best word to use here. Many desktop apps are browser-based these days, but it's fairly uncommon in the mobile landscape.

Yeah, most might be an overstatement, but uncommon is also not the reality, just did a quick Google search.

Webapps: Google Apps (Google Docs, Google Drive, Google Calender, etc.) Zoom Spotify YouTube Skype LinkedIn Amazon

Native apps: Instagram Ebay WhatsApp Blinkist McDonald’s App AirBnB TikTok

I don't really see a tendency there.

None of those are web-based on mobile.

I'm a native app developer for Android, which gives me some professional insight into what's web-based or not.
