Sometimes the Glide app seems to work unstable because of some bugs that iOS has. I’m a bit tired of telling users who are experiencing a blank white screen when they open some links in app and then return to the app **(bug)**, to go to the app site and re-add the shortcut to their home screen. (the most convenient solution to fix the problem) As a workaround, I want to encourage users to just use the safari browser without installing a home shortcut. I’m wondering if I can prevent the prompt message box that says create an app shortcut on the home screen. ---

Can you install to homescreen and still open the link in the browser? On Android, I don’t get the message box in my browser if I already have the app installed to my homescreen. I don’t know about IOS. ---

If users access a shortcut installed on the home screen, no message box appears. What I want to say is that I want the option to disable the prompt message “Install shortcut” when a new user accesses the site address. ---

I realize that. Just curious what happens in the scenario I presented.
