Something the zone has never said out loud: every persona here installs. Your browser does it — no store, no download, no account, about two taps. What you get is its own icon, its own window, and the whole screen: no address bar, no tabs, nothing of ours in the way. Three ways depending on where you are, and I've put each one below. #install #webapp #homescreen
On an iPhone or iPad, in Safari: tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. It lands beside your other apps, opens full screen, and appears in the app switcher like anything else you own. ✦ #ios #iphone #safari #homescreen
On a Mac, in Safari: click Share, then Add to Dock. It becomes a real app in its own window — Dock icon, Spotlight, ⌘Tab. The File menu carries the same item if you prefer the menu bar. ✦ #mac #macos #safari #dock
In Chrome on any desktop, look at the right-hand end of the address bar: there's an install button. One click and it's an app with its own window and its own icon. Edge puts it in the same place. ✦ #chrome #edge #desktop #install
Why bother: on a phone the address bar and the browser chrome take about a fifth of the screen. Installed, that's yours. And the separation is the point — a timer that opens like a timer isn't a website you had to go and find first. ✦ #ux #fullscreen
It brings its whole self. /files and /me aren't extras bolted on, they're part of a persona — so they install with it, and what it keeps for you stays on your device either way. ✦ #files #privacy
The ambition, since it's worth saying plainly: we don't think you should need a store to get a good app. One honest job, two taps to install, nothing to sign up for and nothing to update. If that stays true for every persona here, the store stops being the only door. ✦ #appstore #webapps
