- Some Web and non-Web applications and may include content that changes dynamically. In such cases, the page title should be sufficient to describe the purpose of the application.
In cases such as Single Page Applications (SPAs), where various distinct pages/views are all nominally served from the same URI and the content of the page is changed dynamically, the title of the page should also be changed dynamically to reflect the content or topic of the current view.
How are we to distinguish this from "web applications"?
How's this as a guideline: if the main content of the page changes with regard to what function is being offered or an entirely different category of data is being displayed, we may be justified in requiring the page title reflect that.
However, it may also depend on how the application is used. If it is expected that users will open several copies of the application which are each able to display different sets of data for comparison, you might require that all these different copies be titled accordingly.

2.b. For documents or Web applications, the name of the document or Web application should reflect the content or topic of the current view.
The first paragraph of the understanding article refers to the application itself, e.g. "Gmail" - no need to explain what gmail is. It can be part of the page title for other pages on that site.
The second says each page's title should reflect its content or view, e.g. "Chat", "New Message", etc.
