I have a few of instances of Discourse running for different projects. They are pretty much identical, other than a couple of minor CSS differences, but are behaving differently when I try to use the “Add to homescreen” option on chrome for android. The majority work without a hitch (imitating a native app; splash screen, no URL bar, etc), however two instances seem to simply put a shortcut on the homescreen and open up in a new tab in chrome.
Are there any specific criteria that I might have neglected to set up in the two misbehaving that might be causing this? (I’ve tested it across a couple of devices, so I’m confident I’m not the only one experiencing it).

As said here you need https. Can you share the links?

Both are using https I believe:

Both manifest.json is somehow broken. How they did it is beyond me.
Maybe they forgot to set a required field…
What are the required fields? And how would I go about fixing this?

My best guess is they didn’t set the apple_touch_icon_url SiteSetting. Try sending a PM to an admin and asking then.

I’m the admin for both.
apple_touch_icon_url for https://forum.gnosis.pm is:
mobile_logo_url for https://forum.gnosis.pm is:

Hahaha, you should’ve mentioned it earlier
The only SiteSettings that we use are title and apple_touch_icon_url.
def manifest
render json: default_manifest.to_json
end
def opensearch
render file: "#{Rails.root}/app/views/metadata/opensearch.xml"
end
private
def default_manifest
{
name: SiteSetting.title,
short_name: SiteSetting.title,
display: 'standalone',
orientation: 'portrait',
start_url: "#{Discourse.base_uri}/",
background_color: "##{ColorScheme.hex_for_name('secondary')}",
theme_color: "##{ColorScheme.hex_for_name('header_background')}",

Do you use any plugins? The push notifications one mess with this controller I think.
Yeah I have the push notifications plugin installed on both, I’ll try rebuilding one without and see if that fixes it.

Hoho, found it!
I think that just configuring the plugin may work. You either install and fill all the fields or uninstall.

There is a field called gcm_sender_id somewhere.
However, this should not happen anyway. This may fix it (still need some testing):

disabling the plugin fixed it for https://forum.ether.camp .
I’ll just disable it on both for now, and re-enable it once it’s been fixed.
Thanks heaps for the help.
