I am developing a web cross-browser app.

I want that, clicking on "ADD HOME" icon, by Javascript detects the OS (Android, iOs, BB...) and creates a Shortcut (bookmark) on the HomeScreen.

Is it possible?

Thanks a lot.

At least on iOS(4.x) it isn't possible.

Read Javascript for "Add to Home Screen" on iPhone? for details. As it is suggested, you can add a bubble, dialog or some other information to guide the user for using iOS's own functionality.

  • Ok, I´ve read more about it and this is the only solution... :(. So I have to write a program who redirect to the browser. Thanks. – ganzux Sep 21 '11 at 11:03
