Executive Summary
Bench data on Jili Super Ace, Money Coming and Fortune Gems across APK install and PWA install on a Philippine 4G SIM. PWA wins cold-start; APK wins long-session mobile retention.
Filipino mobile casino players rarely consider the difference between Jili APK install and Jili PWA install, but on a Philippines 4G SIM the two modes have materially different cold-start behaviour and long-session retention. KAYU benched Super Ace (Jili), Money Coming (Jili) and Fortune Gems (Jili) across both Jili install modes on a Smart LTE SIM in Makati — plus Globe LTE comparator runs to confirm the deltas were not carrier-specific.
Why APK vs PWA matters on Filipino 4G
The Filipino mobile slot ecosystem ships in two install modes. The APK is a native Android wrapper around the operator's slot client; it sits on disk, caches all assets locally and does not need to re-download bundles after first install. The PWA (progressive web app) runs inside the mobile browser and re-fetches assets on every cold start unless the service worker cache is intact. On a Filipino 4G SIM with variable RSSI and shared base-station bandwidth, those two profiles diverge.
Cold-start time
| Title | PWA cold-start | APK cold-start | Delta |
|---|---|---|---|
| Super Ace (Jili) | 1.4s | 0.9s | APK +0.5s |
| Money Coming (Jili) | 1.2s | 0.8s | APK +0.4s |
| Fortune Gems (Jili) | 1.6s | 1.1s | APK +0.5s |
| Median | 1.4s | 0.9s | APK +0.5s |
Difference: 0.4–0.5 seconds — imperceptible to most mobile players, but consistent across 100 cold-start trials per Jili title. APK wins cold-start because the asset bundle is already on disk; PWA has to walk the service-worker cache before paint.
Long-session retention
After 45 minutes of continuous Jili mobile slot play, APK mode stays at 60fps; PWA mode on Chrome for Android drops to 52–54fps on thermally-constrained mid-range Filipino phones. On iPhone Safari, PWA mode holds 60fps through the full 45-minute Jili mobile session — Safari's JavaScript engine handles the WebGL load better than Chrome does on Android.
| Surface | 0–10 min fps | 30–45 min fps | Drop |
|---|---|---|---|
| APK on Vivo Y-series | 60 | 60 | 0 |
| APK on Realme C-series | 60 | 58 | -2 |
| PWA on Chrome (Vivo) | 60 | 54 | -6 |
| PWA on Chrome (Realme) | 60 | 52 | -8 |
| PWA on iPhone 12 Safari | 60 | 60 | 0 |
Data per spin
Both install modes use roughly 48KB per spin once the asset bundle is cached. APK saves an estimated 6–8MB of repeated cold-start downloads over a week of daily Filipino sessions; PWA pays that re-download cost when the Chrome service worker cache is evicted (usually after 5–7 days of inactivity).
Storage and update profile
| Mode | Install size | Update mechanism | Disk footprint after 30 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| APK (Jili wrapper) | 8.4 MB | Manual APK re-download or in-app prompt | ~22 MB (asset cache) |
| PWA (Chrome) | 0 MB install | Auto-fetch on each cold start | ~14 MB (service worker cache) |
| PWA (iPhone Safari) | 0 MB install | Auto-fetch on each cold start | ~12 MB (Safari cache) |
Verdict for Filipino mobile players
- APK wins: long Filipino sessions on Android (60fps held), cold-start latency by ~0.5s, bandwidth savings on prepaid 4G.
- PWA wins: iPhone Safari (matches APK), zero install storage cost, instant operator-side updates without APK push.
- Tie: per-spin data, RTP behaviour, RNG outcomes — install mode does not change slot math.
Recommendation
If you play Jili slots more than 30 minutes a day on Android, install the APK. If you play occasionally or run iPhone Safari, the PWA is the cleaner pick — same speed, no install management. If you switch handsets often, default to PWA on iPhone and APK on Android.
FAQ
Q: Is the APK safe to install?
A: Only install APKs from the operator's published download link. Avoid third-party APK mirrors — they can ship modified clients. The operator's own APK is signed and tied to the PAGCOR-licensed operator account.
Q: Will the APK run on iOS?
A: No. APK is Android-only. iOS users default to the PWA on Safari, which closes the performance gap.
Q: Does APK give better RTP?
A: No. RTP is server-side. APK and PWA both pull RNG outcomes from the same Jili server.
Q: How much mobile data does a session use?
A: ~48KB per spin once cached. A 200-spin session uses roughly 10MB of mobile data on either surface.
