Why Rotorox starts with the web

Rotorox is a web app first, not an app-store listing with a website attached. That was a deliberate choice, not a placeholder until "the real app" arrives.

A web-first product means anyone can open rotorox.com on a phone, tablet or laptop and see the current state immediately — no install, no app-store review queue, no waiting for an update to roll out. That matters a lot during early development, when the fastest possible loop between an idea and a pilot seeing it is the whole point.

It also means the Early Access flow itself has no friction beyond an email address: no account creation in an app store, no download, nothing to uninstall if Rotorox turns out not to be for you. The site already installs to a phone home screen like an app if you want that, without forcing it.

This does not rule out dedicated iOS or Android apps later. It means the web is where the product gets proven first, with real usage and feedback, before committing to the much slower cycle native apps require.

So if a future update mentions an app, it will be an addition to what already works — not a replacement for it.
