PWA Browser and Device Support
PWAs are widely supported by modern web browsers, but additional steps may be required for some browsers and devices. Appify Your Store automatically adds the necessary manifest file to your website, enabling PWA features across all compatible browsers.
Supported Browsers and Devices
- Google Chrome: Full PWA support is available on both desktop and mobile (Android) versions. Users can add your website to their home screens from the browser menu.
- Mozilla Firefox: Offers PWA support on Android devices, but this feature is limited on desktop.
- Microsoft Edge: Fully supports PWAs on both desktop and mobile devices. Users can easily add your site to their home screens.
- Safari (iOS): Apple devices support PWAs, but with limited features. Users can install PWAs via the "Add to Home Screen" option in the browser menu. However, push notifications and some advanced features are limited on iOS.
Appify Your Store manages all the necessary steps for these browsers and devices. By adding the manifest file to your website, users can install your site as a PWA. While additional steps may be required for some browsers like Safari, most modern browsers natively support PWAs.
