Why does Firefox 102.1 Android sometimes show "Install" instead of "Add to Home Screen" in the dropdown menu?

Hi there Why does Firefox 102.1 Android sometimes show "Install" instead of "Add to Home Screen" in the dropdown menu when I want to add a website page to my home screen? Why does it do this with some sites and not with others? Can I prevent Firefox from showing "Install"? Thanks for any help. Ian

Hi

Some pages makes themselves available as a Progressive Web App - an almost app like experience from a web page (you can read the details of this at: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Progressive_web_apps).

If you just want to have them as a shortcut, the easiest way is to open the page in Firefox for Android, turn off WiFi and mobile data, and then save is as a shortcut to your Android homescreen.

I hope that this helps.

Thanks, Paul for this lighting fast reply!

My problem was that a website that I manage, was not updating properly when I clicked its icon on the home screen. I never prepared this website as a web app, with json mainfest and so on, so I'm wondering why it gets this special treatment from Firefox. Anyway, thanks for the tip.

No problem, glad we could help.

I am not an expert in this side of it, but this article may help you to diagnose what is triggering the site to install as a PWA:
