I recently switched from the default Chrome browser to Firefox on my Android phone, and I’m now trying to redo all my webapps with that browser. But I can’t seem to be able to do our forum? I have no problems with other webapps like Wikipedia. ---

No, I meant [https://hacks.mozilla.org/2017/10/progressive-web-apps-firefox-android/](https://hacks.mozilla.org/2017/10/progressive-web-apps-firefox-android/) It opens the website in a dedicated, undecorated window, outside the browser and have it behave like an app. ---

Hm, and that’s weird, after I deleted the webapp from the home screen and the app drawer, now when I create it again in Chrome it only appears on the home screen, not the app drawer any more. ---

Something odd is happening on mobile to the logo as well. I assume the software was updated today and broke some stuff. ---
