Insilico Terminal can now be installed as a Progressive Web App (PWA), enabling you to access it like a native application directly from your device. This provides a seamless experience with features such as quick access without relying on a browser tab.
A PWA is a type of application delivered through the web but with the feel and functionality of a native app. It allows you to:
Access the app from your desktop or mobile home screen
Use the app in a standalone window without a browser interface
Benefit from faster load times and enhanced caching
Open the Insilico Terminal in your browser by navigating to https://insilicoterminal.com.
Look for the "Install" icon in the address bar (usually on the right side as a plus symbol or download icon).
Click the Install option when prompted.
The Terminal will now be available as an application on your desktop.
Open https://insilicoterminal.com in your mobile browser.
For Chrome on Android:
Tap the three dots menu in the top-right corner.
Select "Add to Home Screen".
For Safari on iOS (note that Apple only allows PWAs to be installed through Safari, not through other Browsers):
Tap the Share button (square with an upward arrow).
Scroll down and select "Add to Home Screen".
Follow the prompts to complete installation.
The Terminal will now appear on your home screen, just like a native app.
