The home screen on your smartphone or tablet isn't just a place where your apps live. You can also add shortcuts to websites. Here's how to create an "app" for any website on your device, allowing you to access shortcuts directly from your home screen.

iPhone or iPad

1. Open Safari (other browsers, such as Chrome, won't work for this)
2. Navigate to the website you want to save to your home screen by entering the URL of the website you want to create a shortcut to, tap go
3. Tap the Share button on the bottom of the page 

1. In the list of options that appear, scroll down until you see Add to Home Screen and tap it. The Add to Home Screen dialog box will appear
2. Choose a name for the website shortcut on your home screen (ex, KCS Apps). You'll see the link so you can confirm it, as well as the site's favicon that will appear as the "app" icon on your home screen. Tap Add when you're done. Safari will close automatically and you will be taken to where the icon is located on your iPhone's or iPad's home screen
3. Now just tap the new "app" (aka shortcut) on your home screen, and it will open the website in its own navigation window, independent of what you have open in Safari.

Android

1. Open Chrome
2. Navigate to the website or web page you want to pin to your home screen
3. Tap the menu icon (3 dots in upper right-hand corner) and tap Add to home screen
4. Choose a name for the website shortcut, then Chrome will add it to your home screen.
