How to Add Website Shortcuts to Your Android Phone’s Home Screen

Most Android browsers allow you to add a shortcut to a website on your home screen. This can be done through the browser’s menu options and is similar for most browsers. If you use Google Chrome as your main browser, follow these steps to add a website shortcut to your phone’s home screen:

  1. Open a website in Google Chrome.
  2. Tap the three-dot menu icon in the top right corner.
  3. Select “Add to Home screen”.
  4. If needed, you can change the name of the shortcut.
  5. Tap “Add”.
  6. The shortcut will now appear on your home screen with the website logo (if available) and a small Chrome logo.

You can move the shortcut to any position on your home screen or tap on it to open the website in Chrome. If you’re using Firefox on your Android phone, the steps to add a website shortcut are the same. For Microsoft Edge, tap the three horizontal lines in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen to open the menu and select “Add to phone”. In both Firefox and Microsoft Edge, you can also rename the website shortcut.
