Install as an app

How to install nctools as a Progressive Web App on desktop and mobile.

nctools is installable as a PWA. Once installed, it launches in its own window without browser chrome — indistinguishable from a native app for most day-to-day use.

Chrome / Edge desktop

An install icon appears in the address bar when the PWA criteria are met. Click it, confirm, and nctools is added to your Applications folder or Start menu.

iOS Safari

Tap the Share icon, choose Add to Home Screen, and confirm. The site opens as a standalone app when launched from the home screen icon.

Android Chrome

A bottom sheet prompt appears after 4 seconds on first visit (once you have interacted with the cookie banner). Confirm to install.
