GreatAwakening.win mobile app! (kind of)
? Notable
App developers hate this one simple trick!
But, really... I'm surprised how many people don't know about this great feature on modern smart phones which most browsers support.
Here's how to add an app-like button for GA.win to your home screen on
Android:
- open up greatawakening.win in your favorite mobile browser.
- tap the 3-dot menu button
- select Add to home screen
Safari on iOS:
- open up greatawakening.win
- tap the share button
- select the Add to Home Screen option (I'm not sure if Chrome on iOS supports this feature, yet)
This will put a GA.win icon on your home screen. It wraps the website up like an app and treats it independently of your browser so you don't need to open it up in a web page and maintain the tab.
Not complaining because it’s a miracle that this site exists at all, but one minor quibble with the method described above. I still use the regular browser method because even if you use the “app,” it still redirects you to the browser every time you click on a link. If there is a way to keep that webpage in the “app” it would be perfect.
As it stands right now, when I go to clean up at the end of the week, I find that I have 20+ instances of great awakening open, haha, and 20+ webpages open too.
Interesting. are you on iOS? I use Brave (Chromium) on android and it opens webpages within the "app".
Thanks to whoever downvoted my comment. But..... why
I’m on IOS. I just checked it and it looks like they may have fixed it - as long as I don’t have an official app installed for the linked webpage, it looks like it stays in the “app.” My mistake.
