At the time (2010?), WebSQL was the only way to store more than 5MB of data on both android chrome and ios safari. (Used it slightly ridiculously for storing base64 photos when there was no data connection.)
It was quite frustrating when it got deprecated, it felt like they were killing the only way to get close to parity with native apps. I refused to use firefox for about 5 years.
