Adding Softools to your Phone

Having quick access to frequently visited websites can be a real-time-saver. By adding a webpage shortcut to your home screen, you can bypass opening your browser and navigating to the site each time. Here's how you can do this on both iPhone and Android devices:

• For iPhone (using Safari)

• For Android (using Chrome)

For iPhone (using Safari):

1. Open Safari: Begin by launching the Safari browser on your iPhone.

2. Navigate to the Webpage: Go to the webpage you wish to add to your home screen.

3. Tap the Share Button: This looks like a box with an arrow pointing upward and is located at the bottom of the screen.

4. Choose "Add to Home Screen": In the share menu, scroll down and tap on the "Add to Home Screen" option.

5. Name the Shortcut: You will be prompted to choose a name for the shortcut. This name will appear below the icon on your home screen.

6. Add: Tap "Add" located in the top-right corner.

Now, the website will appear as an icon on your home screen, just like an app. When tapped, it will open the website in Safari.

For Android (using Chrome):

1. Open Chrome: Start by launching the Chrome browser on your Android device.

2. Navigate to the Webpage: Go to the webpage you wish to add to your home screen.

3. Tap the Three Dots: These are located in the top-right corner of the screen to open the menu.

4. Choose "Add to Home screen": In the dropdown menu, tap on the "Add to Home screen" option.

5. Name the Shortcut: A popup will appear allowing you to name the shortcut.

6. Add: Tap "Add".

The website will now appear as an icon on your home screen. When you tap on it, the website will open in Chrome.

Creating shortcuts to your favourite websites directly on your home screen is a straightforward process that can help streamline your browsing experience. Whether you're using an iPhone or an Android device, in just a few taps, you can have immediate access to the web pages you frequent the most.
