I have a PWA with all the requirements to install it to devices. This PWA is being used by multiple people and always installed without any problems. Now I have a customer who bought 3 new identical android devices and on 2 devices the installation went smoothly. But on one device the 'Install PWA' option is missing and the 'beforeinstallprompt' is never fired.
I have already tried to:
- Reset device to factory settings
- Update the device to latest version
- Reinstalled Google Chrome
- Update Google Chrome to the latest version
- Change the chrome://flags to allow PWA installing
So far no luck.
I have added screenshots of 2 sites that should demo the installation of PWA's. I am also unable to install these demo PWA's since the 'Install App' is missing and the 'beforeinstallprompt' is never fired. On all of the other devices I have at hand these demo PWA's are installable. I tried the folowing demo projects:
