PWAs on Android? (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago by gedaliyah@lemmy.world to c/firefox@lemmy.ml

Is there a way to install web apps on mobile using Firefox? I'm not looking for shortcuts that open in new browser tabs. I would like to run some sites as installed, full-screen apps. The excellent PWA addon works great for desktop, but I imagine it would not be possible to duplicate this on mobile based on how the addon runs.

Any thoughts? I'm open to using another app or browser that is built on Firefox if needed

It's not a proper PWA, but does a decent job faking it: Hermit

I did notice some rendering issues on an app I self host. It still worked, mind you. Just didn't look correct when compared to viewing in Chrome or FF.

That seems promising. Thanks!
