Andor | Thanks | 01:02:29 |
Andor | Ever notice some web pages offer the "Save to home screen" option, and some offer the "Install app" option instead, never both m | 01:03:43 |
Andor | Redacted or Malformed Event | 01:03:49 |
slinkytoad | Ya I have. Never looked into the difference though. | 01:04:26 |
slinkytoad | Same build of android? | 01:04:35 |

slinkytoad | Same version of Android | 01:05:57 |
Andor | Sorry, I'll need a complete thought there. | 01:08:01 |
slinkytoad | When you go to install the app, and you have two different options, are both options shown on the same version of android. | 01:08:48 |
Andor | Yes. Yeah, I'm using one device to notice it, if that's what you're asking. | 01:10:09 |
Andor | The option depends entirely on the website. | 01:11:05 |
slinkytoad | Okay. I’m not sure then. I wonder if is trying to link you to the play store. iOS does the same for sites that have apps | 01:11:37 |

Andor | For example, labcorp.com offers "Add to Home screen," but the Ralphs.com site offers "Install app". | 01:12:42 |
slinkytoad | So if I go to Ralph’s I get prompted to install the app from the App Store. I’m on iOS btw. | 01:13:38 |
Andor | I initially asked in context of Android, but okay, maybe this relates to iOS. If you disregard that to view the browser menu, do you see the feature of saving to home screen or install app? I'm on Chromium, btw. | 01:24:31 |

slinkytoad | No I see just add to Home Screen. For Ralph’s. Chromium must have code to check if they are prompting to install the app or not. The prompt on their page is in the sites code I’d believe | 01:26:25 |
Andor | Right. Most major company sites which all also have apps only offer to add the page to the device home screen. | 01:30:14 |
tahregrubmah | I wonder if some of those web sites are built with a progressive web application manifest. Those can “install” and run somewhat offline. | 01:33:11 |

Wow...why are POE speakers so expensive ?
https://www.amazon.com/Algo-8186-Paging-Speaker-Ringer/dp/B0CLJSM5P2/ That's more than PoE. SIP let's you set that as a phone #, looks like. As in dialing a number to access the PA. And you can assign multiple numbers. Like lunch room, and all call. | 01:52:53 |
Andor | Anyways, I'm interested in this in hopes to identify a means by which to opt out of the web app ("Install app") so the web page can be saved to the home screen to open as a web page in the browser instead of as a web app. The reason is that web apps, or maybe only some web apps, just don't trigger any compliance with Bitwarden. | 01:57:06 |
tahregrubmah | I don’t know if this applies on Android but Firefox doesn’t support progressive we apps. | 02:21:01 |

tahregrubmah | Ok Firefox on android can install PWA. | 02:30:35 |

Warped | Firefox on Android can install add-ons only found in desktop store. You just need to make a collection and enter dev mode on Android to load. | 04:34:42 |
