The interfaces:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mobile app<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Desktop website<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For reasons known only to Chuck Norris and Taylor Swift, many software development shops choose to use a different back-end implementation for each. Because the implementations are functionally different, things often don&#8217;t quite behave the same between the two. This is especially true around edge conditions. A few concrete examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Some Turkish award flights only ticket with the mobile app<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Some banks only accept money order deposits via the mobile app<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Same day change on Delta behaves differently on mobile than desktop<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s just scratching the surface.
