Hello

I've been trying to use the "request pwa install" function from Browser plugin.

I made a simple example with just a button on screen to request install. It works nice on Android but does nothing on ios (17.3).

Did I forgot to do something ? Does Apple requires something else to allow this ?

Safari doesn't support prompting to install a web app. You can do it manually though with the "add to homescreen" feature in Safari.

Thanks Ashley

I thought the plugin was able to do that (a few weeks back, you told me that new Apple policy of making pay downloads on store over 1M had incitated you to implement PWA prompt in Construct).

I know about the "add to homescreen" thing but I was hoping to find an easy way to tell users who don't.
