Thanks very much @Darren_Murphy , enjoy your weekend :grinning:

The new install button still doesn’t work on Android, and like I’ve stressed several times, frankly I don’t understand how it ever could work on Chrome/Android at least. I have yet to see an example of it working for anybody with Android. Now I often see the popup showing up when opening any app i…

Hi @Jeff_Hager do you think that this is an issue that is being worked on and going to be resolved soon as it seems like a fairly major issue? Simon

I have no idea. I haven’t directly submitted the issue to Glide through their support form, but I’ve posted about this several times in the forum, as well as in the expert slack, but I have yet to see any kind of official response.

It works correctly for me with the automatic pop-up. On my device, it does not have an “install” button, but simply asks if I want to install it to my home screen. When I click “yes”, it works. The pop-up that comes up by using the menu button does not work, as you have seen. Glide, when I submi…

I am definitely the type of user to check out an app prior to installing it, I get more and more selective about which apps I download these days with both storage and security being an issue. I am having t…

Settings → Privacy, then select:

Public
Optional sign-in
Anyone

If you want to force either light or dark them, go to Settings → Appearance, and then uncheck the box labeled “Match device’s theme”

It should work, as long as your users open the App in the correct browser; Safari on IOS, Chrome on Android.
