I have this PWA app https://www.oubil.com and when I download it from the playstore(Oubil)... it is installed as a link and if I click the installed icon on my phone, it is open almost like is a browser session, with the URL address field and everything... but if I open first the chrome browser and open the https://www.oubil.com URL, the app asks me if I want to install it. If I do so, the app is installed as a native app(like it should be) and if I click the installed icon on my phone, it's open like a native app(like it should be).

What am I missing? :D

I set up the manifest.json with this: "display": "standalone"
I put my assetlinks.json on the .well-known folder in my server and I double check with the lighthouse tool that my app covers all what is need to be a PWA app

It's probably due to a missing of assetlinks.json in your pwa website's root directory.

You should make .well-known folder at root directory and paste assetlinks.json into the folder. For example, assetlinks.json should be accessed with the link https://<URL to your PWA>/.well-known/assetlinks.json. You can also make repository named .well-known and upload assetlinks.json on the repository if you are running pwa website with CRA and Github-Pages.

For more description, check this documentation. https://docs.pwabuilder.com/#/builder/android
