Progressive Web Apps still have Chrome icon on them, and nowhere to be seen in Installed Apps list. Is Google backing up on PWAs?

- dstaley 9y agoThis sounds like a bookmark, not a PWA. I have several PWAs on my Pixel 2, all of which appear without the Chrome icon in my app drawer.
- kuschku 9y agoAndroid has two ways of PWAs currently, either as a more complicated bookmark (with the icon) or with Chrome generating an APK on the fly, Google signing it on the fly, and it then being installed. Obviously, this is only available to Chrome, and not to any third-party browser (the EU antitrust commission is gonna love this).
- rtpg 9y agoThe Google maps PWA created from Firefox for Android looks very "app-y" to me. No header or anything I bet that there's a certain set of meta headers you need to use Doesn't show up in the installed apps tho
