I\'m not sure how to word this correctly, so I\'m going to be a little verbose:
I\'m tasked with building an app for my company that will just load a mobile website
FWIW a company I worked for put an app through the App Store that was little more than a browser in May 2013.
It probably helped that the website it pointed to had an extremely responsive design, was a media player with play buttons etc. Also played video inline, which you can't do on mobile Safari (because mobile Safari will play the video full screen).
