The progressive web app functionality seems to be broken. When checking the app’s manifest.json
file I see these is the setting "display": "standalone"
. But when installing the site via the steps mentioned here and then open the app via the home screen icon it doesn’t show in full screen but it opens as a new tab within Chrome. I’ll end up with lots of Home Assistant tabs in the end. It’s seems like the site doesn’t match all the criteria mentioned in the Google documents linked above.
So adding it to a home screen works fine but letting the app behave like a PWA doesn’t. I know Google Chrome is now more strickt in when a site acts as a PWA. Maybe this is related to this.
Are there more people facing this problem who recently added an icon to there home screen.
