    But what's your concern about using an app, if you apparently have the ability to do so and are content to send the same info via your web browser?

    Two reasons, essentially.  One, I don't have the latest high-spec mobile phone handset.  So storage capacity and processor power are modest.  I try not to load the phone up with software that I don't need when I'm out and about.  And there's always the risk that my phone might go missing/get mislaid/be stolen (so I try to limit the sensitive personal data kept on it).  

    Then uninstall the app once you've used it?
