It's essentially just a different programming language. The majority of Android apps are made with Java, which can do just about anything. Because of that, it's a little harder to learn for some people. HTML5 is the latest revision of web standards (which I don't think is even completed yet). For some people, making web pages is easier than creating Java apps. Web apps are much more limited in what they can do. When I program web apps, I spend most of my time figuring out work-arounds for things I can do with no problem in standard desktop applications.
