iOS icon

Post by federico » 2021-04-21 12:16

I'm trying to get the icon app in my iPad and iPhone using the function "Add to Home screen". It works on favourites and Windows for example. I already tried to change the resolution in 144x144... nothing.
Any suggestion?
thanks

Federico

Hi,

what exactly do you mean by "icon app"? Something like this?
Either this works as an PWA or under the specific ios req. for the images and with a code snippet added to the code.

Exactly. There's no a real icon as I can see on on favourites. There's a screenshot inside the icon on the Home Screen

Thank oliveira but this article seems to be a workaround (complicated too). I think the problem should be fixed on the program:
this is what i found:

There is no need to write actual code. See Davids link. There's the sample HTML code to do it.
And to get the appropriate sized images, there are generator like this to get the job done if you like to do so.
This one for e.g. creates media for pwas like the splashscreen but also useable icon for your use case.
