How to create a mobile app button

On iPhone:

1. Open Safari. Other browsers, such as Chrome, won’t work for this.
2. Navigate to the website you want to save to your home screen. Make sure you visit the exact page you want to open.
3. Tap the Share button at the bottom of the page.
4. On the bottom row of icons, scroll over until you see Add to Home Screen and tap this.
5. On the next screen, choose a name for the link on your home screen. You’ll see the link so you can confirm it, as well as the site’s favicon that becomes its “app” icon.
6. Now just tap the new app on your home screen, and it will open the website in its own navigation window, independent of Safari.

On Android:

1. Launch “Chrome” app.
2. Open the website or web page you want to pin to your home screen.
3. Tap the menu icon (3 dots in upper right-hand corner) and tap Add to homescreen.

You’ll be able to enter a name for the shortcut and then Chrome will add it to your home screen.
