Inject 'Add to Home screen' popup on mobile devices

I’d like to show the opportunity to save my tools to home screen on mobile devices (as well as provide QR-code to do so on desktop) in order to let users easier access my tools later. Which way I could go. E.g. I found this script: GitHub - top-rated/add-to-homescreen: Add to home screen call-out for mobile devices - seems I need to add some custom CSS and script though… Can I go this way? It means I could to host them somewhere else?

That script seems pretty old, you may want to research PWA to achieve the result you are seeking. PWA = Progressive Web App

Thanks, @sendcards . Yeah, I know a bit what PWA is. I don’t think it makes sense to generate PWA app at this point. It’s just about how to make the landing page to show this or that overlay with both options: save to home screen for mobile tip as well link+QR code to send website link to WhatsApp and also have it there for easier access later.

I’ve been looking for a shortcut like this for awhile too. Check out Glide apps, you might be able to use that as a wrapper to accomplish this. They still have a free tier to trial. Glide Pricing | No Code App Builder for Teams & Businesses

Thanks. Will take a look.

Well, this is maybe too much to use it just for this overlay purpose. I used onpox.com as popup engine for custom HTML overlay and AI generated what’s else needed.
