I've always thought it's a bit unfortunate how having a smartphone (which almost always also means having an Apple or Google account to download third-party apps) is slowly becoming a near-necessity in today's society, rather than a nice-to-have. Even some places like national parks (in the USA) require you to download an app just to enter.
Agreed, it's becoming silly. Particularly for thing that are infrequent. Like no I don't want to install an app to check into a flight given that I fly once a year. And of course each airline would have their own app. Forcing an app on me when your service is not a primarily digital product, or there's no reason why your product needs a special unique app, is a great shortcut to me hating your organisation.
