Use web apps

A web app is an app built for the web that you can access on any device. You can use web apps to have a website work as an app and access it on your computer or mobile devices through the launcher or home screen. Some web apps include extra features, like more storage to browse content offline, notifications, file system access, and icon badges.

Tip: Although web apps work offline, some may not work completely without an internet connection.

Install a web app

Tip: Some apps offer shortcuts to features. To find a list of app shortcuts, right-click the web app on the taskbar. Learn more about shortcuts for websites in Chrome.
