How to Add a Website to Your Home Screen (iPhone / Android)
This guide explains how to add any website you’re viewing in your mobile browser as an icon on your home screen — just like an app.
And with OJapp, you can go even further: turn any URL into a custom “app” with your own icon.
How to Add a Website on iPhone (Safari)
- Open the website in Safari
- Tap the Share button (□↑)
- Select “Add to Home Screen”
- Enter a name → tap “Add”
How to Add a Website on Android (Chrome)
- Open the website in Chrome
- Tap the menu icon (⋮) in the top-right
- Select “Add to Home screen”
- Tap “Add” to finish
Does It Work Like an App?
Yes — once added, the website opens almost like a native app. Some sites even support **PWA installation**, enabling better performance and limited offline support.
