A Progressive Web App (PWA) is a web page that operates inside a frameless browser. PWAs come with additional features and permissions compared to regular web pages, and one significant distinction is that they seamlessly appear as native applications to users.
While the interface may differ slightly between Windows and Mac, these instructions are applicable to both operating systems.
Google Chrome Instructions

Once you arrive at the management page, you will find various options, such as starting the app when you sign in or updating notification and permissions settings. To uninstall a PWA, click the “Uninstall” button found at the top-right corner of the screen.
