You can definitely add websites to your home screen on iOS.

- cpmsmith 6y agoBy "dialog", they likely mean an API with which to prompt the user to add it, like they have for apps on the App Store.
- dhagz 6y agoI think they're referring to PWA-style "Add to Homescreen", which I agree is a weak point of iOS/MobileSafari. I also wonder why there isn't good/any support for WASM in Safari.
- RandallBrown 6y agoDoes android provide a way to launch this dialog from within the website? iOS has a PWA-style add to home screen dialog, but it's part of Safari. It's accessed from the share sheet.
- mikewhy 6y agoChrome on Android will indeed present an "add to homescreen" dialog when the user visits a PWA. https://web.dev/promote-install/#browser-promotion https://web.dev/promote-install/#browser-promotion
