Hey @Anonymous ,
there are differences between an App and a Workspace.
To sum it up quickly with my words, an App is to consume a finished status of a workspace and provide it to a bigger audience. In this App you can decide what you want to include (which report, dashboard, etc.) and to whom you provide it.
A Workspace is to work in it. Either to develop a report to publish later to a bigger audience or if you want to work on a topic with a smaller group.
