Currently many users don't realize they can install the PWA as any other app on both Android and iOS. This is even more true with offline support coming in 1.1. We should promote this and guide mobile users:

  • detect mobile users
  • detect home screen users
  • button in on-boarding
  • button in the left menu
  • landing page
  • support for beforeinstallprompt

Somehow related to #177, as the home screen app doesn't retain the previous data.

Related pull request.

On Android Chrome actually shows the "Add to desktop" banner automatically already.

That's true, support for PWAs is still inconsistent. The other problem is lack of user awareness resulting in complains "you don't have a native/mobile app". My point is, the banner itself isn't enough.

Also related to #186.
