Hi

I have an app in a team that is set to Public with ‘Allow Copy’ checked. How can I let someone copy it? The URL just leads to a sign in screen. Do I first need to move it from the team into my general apps?

Are you running any Ad-Blocker plugins in your browser?

If yes, try disabling them and reload the app.

Thanks, tried that but the same result

The URL of an app in a team

vs the URL of an app in My Apps.

Is the screen that is needed for someone to copy the app? I haven’t had to do this before, usually just share an existing app via QR etc.

That first screen shot looks like it’s taken from a mobile browser - is it?

As I understand it, in order to copy an App, you need to open it in a desktop/laptop browser.

And yes, you can allow an App to be copied from any paid team.

Cheers, it’s reassuring to know the app can be copied from a paid team. However, it’s a PC browser not mobile. Trying to simulate a user visiting the URL and copying the app.

Are you able to share the URL so that I can test it? (privately, if you like)

For the benefit of others that might face a similar issue, the problem here was that the “Open in tablet/desktop mode by default” was enabled. And so the App opened full screen in a browser, and the “Copy this App” button wasn’t shown.

Disabling that setting resolved the issue.
