So you know how you have icons for apps on your home screen? Did you know you could add app icons like that for websites too? Then instead of having to open up Safari and type in the URL of the website every time … you just click on the icon on your home screen and it will take you straight there in the browser. This is a pretty minor thing to set up, but it can really be a timesaver if you visit a particular site often (like our mobile site).
- Open up Safari and load up the site. Note: In our system, be sure you are signed in and on the actual page you want to bookmark, not our login page. If you bookmark the login page it will always open that page, instead of the site you really want to go to.
-
Tap on the button that looks like an arrow coming out of a box.
-
Tap Add to Home Screen
-
You will now see a preview of what the icon will look like on your home screen for that site, and have the option to customize the text that will appear below it. Tap Add.
That’s it. Now anytime you need to go to that website, just click on the icon instead of going to Safari and manually typing in the URL or trying to find an existing window that is open for that website. This might help save a couple seconds or clicks every time you visit that site.
