i uninstalled wefwef to get the new icon in the last update, i had it installed as a pwa and it would show up in my app drawer like an actual installed app
now i click the same install button from chrome but it only lets me add it as a shortcut? i can’t get it to install as an actual app
anyone else have this?
I think it’s been like that for a while. I self-host a lot of webapps that have PWAs, and they only ever show up as a shortcut with the Chrome badge in the corner. I can’t tell a difference at all between “Create shortcut” and “Install {app}” options anymore.
Not sure when it changed, but it used to give you an actual, un-badged icon and appeared in the app drawer as you described. I think that’s been at least a year ago, but that’s just a best guess.
Definitely hasn’t been that long, i had wefwef installed to the app drawer and that app only started existing last month
feel like it’s some weird chrome bug but it could also just be an issue with the last update of the app
Same. I had it installed in my app drawer, without the badge just this morning. Updated to get the new icon and it has been a chrome shotcut since then.
Definitely not deleting the other pwas I have installed now since they’re still in the app drawer and all
