103.0a1 (Build #2015886027)

Is there a way to force websites to install to open as a standalone Firefox instance rather than just a shortcut to open as a new tab? Facebook.com seems to be add to desktop as a link whereas Instagram.com seems to be installable more like a progressive web app

Hi

There are two ways that I am aware of to do this:-

  1. Add the shortcut while the page is loading
  2. Add the shortcut while your device is not connected to the web.

In both cases you should see the site added as a link rather than as a PWA.

I hope that this helps.

Thank you, the pages I'm referring to I believe are the other way around. They allow me to add a shortcut to them but when I click it another tab gets added to Firefox. I would like to be able to click on a facebook.com icon that opens by itself like I can with Instagram.com

Hi

If the site is not designed to be opened as a PWA, it will not be possible to open it as a PWA.
