Audio File Upload and Storage - PWA or Native App?

Hey everyone! This is my first post here! Theo, thanks for setting up a community of builders that empowers people to make their own things that ships to users! Here's my question, and some context that I think is pertinent: I'm working on a project that centers around recording and uploading audio on a mobile device (right, now the max upload is around 50 MB). You can think of these as voice memo-like bits. For reasons of economics, overhead, and my current level of knowledge, it seems to make sense to stick with PWA if I can. 1. Do I understand correctly, that I could use local storage to ensure that audio files are not lost if someone fails to upload one of these files in a low reception area?
A couple of notes. I've not worked in React Native. I'm a team of 1. My current plan is to create a shippable product to test in the market relatively quickly and then iterate.

No one answered you, but simply, for THIS SPECIFIC problem it comes down to one question. Are my users going to use my product on a desktop or a phone. If its a phone, you'll get infinitely better performance going native, but if your users prefer desktop, its definitely better to go PWA. With that said, I'd choose Expo as well.
