Install the PWA

UniHomelabDash includes a web app manifest, service worker, install icons, and an offline fallback. Installation keeps the dashboard one tap away; it does not move server data onto the device.

  1. Open the dashboard in Safari.
  2. Tap Share.
  3. Choose Add to Home Screen.
  4. Confirm the name and tap Add.

iOS requires Safari for the Add to Home Screen flow.

  1. Open the dashboard in Chrome.
  2. Open the browser menu.
  3. Choose Install app or Add to Home screen.
  4. Confirm the installation.

Chrome and Edge show an install control in the address bar or browser menu. Firefox can use the dashboard normally but does not provide the same desktop PWA installation flow.

Browser install behavior is most reliable over HTTPS. A trusted LAN HTTP origin can still be used in some environments, but reverse-proxy HTTPS is recommended when the dashboard is used across multiple devices. Do not publish the login page directly to the internet without additional access control.
