You can probably add “website” to the list.

Hm, this one intrigues me: what is commonly referred to as a website, without actually being a website?

I think they meant all of the apps that are just a website with a wrapper.

Well, and there's also just lots of webpages implemented as an SPA – Single-Page Application.
Which you might be able to register in your browser as a PWA – Progressive Web App.
And which are just generally equally as interactive as an app, so good luck explaining the difference to folks who don't care about implementation specifics...
