I want to replicate the functionality that shows on map.google.com or m.grooveshark.com for example that when you access the web app on the default browser it asks you as a user if you want to set this webapp on your "desktop". ¿How do I do that on both platform?.
I'd suggest you try the Mobile Bookmark Bubble javascript library.
The Mobile Bookmark Bubble is a JavaScript library that adds a promo bubble to the bottom of your mobile web application, inviting users to bookmark the app to their device's home screen.
There are two new versions of implementation, one supports Mobile Safari only, while the other supports Mobile Safari, Android, Blackberry touch smartphones and Playbook.

I need to make an application in App inventor 2 that displays the website in the selected browser when clicked. I was able to do this for google chrome, but it doesn't work on firefox and edge. The firefox application starts up but does not enter the link. The Edge application does not turn on at all.
This is code for chrome browser:
This is edge:
This is Firefox (App starting but not search)
Unless you want your user to use a specific browser, I think a better approach would just be opening the link in the user's default browser. If they don't have a default browser, then Android should show the browser chooser.
I am working on a hybrid application.
My webpages are responsive when i check them in browser inspect window on iphone screen.
But when when i used them in ios, it does not remain responsive anymore.
Any idea about problem and solution?
The same issue is resolved in android by first zooming out the page and the zoom in according to screen size. But it is not working here.
I'm developing an Android App with Delphi Xe7. App has a TWebBrowser which loads a normal internet web page like www.lfp.com. The problem I have is that the web page displayed doesn't adjust itself to the TWebBrowser, you have to scroll the page. I would like to show the entire web page, and after that zoom where I like.
Any suggestions?
With iPhone you can display different content for the same URL depending on whether the page is visited in normal Safari or via a home screen icon for that webpage. If the page is visited in Safari then you typically display the instructions for downloading the app. And if the page is visited via the home screen icon then you display the app.
I currently have all this setup for a client. When the URL is visited by a non-iOS device, then the app is always shown(i.e. instructions are never shown like with iOS if visited in Safari).
My question is, on Android is there any way I can detect if the page is launching via a home screen icon or not so that I can display instructions or the app like on iPhone? If not, what's the best alternative?
I am creating a mobile webpage using jquery mobile, no luck in creating a button when tapping which will create a home page icon automatically, a one tap process, on both ios and android devices, something like the AddFavorite() function in the desktop world, is it technically possible ?
