Mobile apps existed before 2008, and before android or iOS became ubiquitous.

You seem to have forgotten Symbian, for example, and its numerous versions and the thousands of apps available on them.

Smartphones also existed long before the more recent android and iOS powered devices.

In both scenarios the more recent offerings are inarguably more powerful and robust than the older, but that doesn't mean they were nonexistent.
