How to Save a Website as an Application

How to Save a Website as an Application

If you feel like you have too many browser tabs open at any given time, then you'll be happy to know that you can sometimes save certain browser tabs as a standalone application on your device. This will give them their own icon and make accessing them much easier than constantly navigating to them through your web browser.

How to Turn a Website Into a Standalone App

If you frequently refer to websites throughout the day, you might need a quick and convenient way to open them. The aforementioned apps can help you do so without opening even more tabs on your browser.

For example, you might want quick access to your email or other cloud applications that load in your web browser. You can use this trick to remove your often-accessed browser tabs and have them open in their own standalone window, complete with a taskbar or start menu icon. It’s great for freeing your brain of just one more browser tab.

Here’s how to turn your favorite websites into standalone apps in Google Chrome:

  1. Go to your designated website and go to the page that you want the app to start at.
  2. Click on the three-dot icon in the top right corner of your browser.
  3. Select Save and share > Install page as app… Some of the Google services you want to do this with don’t let you do this, like Google Docs and Gmail. Some websites might prompt you to install a preexisting app, too.
  4. Give your app a name. If you don’t, it will automatically generate one for you.
  5. You’ll find your new app in the taskbar and you can search for it through the Start menu. You can also pin the app to the taskbar if you’d like to have easy access to it. All you have to do is right-click the taskbar icon and select pin to taskbar.
