Push Notifications
I think push notifications are real game changer in case of using mobile app and they very simple reason is click to rate generally offer supplied over email get bounced are ratio of click is very poor as compared to push notification almost 2 out of 3 push notification get clicked which turn in to more conversion rate
Personalization
Personalization is another big factor for using mobile app as mobile app have access to your history that really help store owner to personalize their catalog and data with respect to the end users it also help to showcase the desired result and offers as per the user choice which also leads in better conversion rates.
User Engagement
Mobile apps are easy to use its like one tap and complete catalog is open you dont need to to do a login or logout every time like you need to do in the web browsers also browsing catalog over touch is a personal experience as compared to the desktop browsing experience
