Pet Pal Keli mentioned in her Pet Pals Facebook LIVE video that Pet Pals has been working hard behind the scene on our website. Security and privacy of your information is one of our top priorities and focus. Without further ado!
Pet Pals is proud to announce the launch of our own Progressive Web Application (PWA)! Our Web App is a web app that uses modern web capabilities to deliver you a mobile app-like experience on any compatible device. This brings you increased security, blazing fast interaction, access even when you are offline, and more for the entire Pet Pals site and blog. At the same time, it requires no permissions on your device, no installation, and does not (cannot) access or use any of your information.
So how do you get the Pet Pals Web App and/or how do you know of your device is compatible? Simple! Navigate to HirePetPals.com and;
- For Android -
Look for a small banner to appear at the bottom of the page (see screenshots below for an example) giving you the option to add Pet Pals to your Home screen. If it appears, your device is compatible. Click/tap the message and you'll get another message asking if you want to add Pet Pals to your Home screen. Click "add" and your set.
- For Apple iOS -
Click/tap the "share" button and then select the "Add to Home Screen" (see screenshot below) option. It will look like your adding a regular website shortcut. However, the app will open in full screen and operate accordingly.
Once installed, you can treat it like any other app on your device. Likewise, if you ever want to remove it from you device, then you do so like you would any other app on that device.
***The next time you visit Pet Pals site or blog, or want to email or even call Pet Pals; just open the app instead of navigating to the website and then select what you want to do. You'll always have our latest updates and always pick back up in the same place you left off.
Tip:
- swipe right anywhere on our Web App or mobile site to see a full navigational menu and easily get to where you want to go.
Notes:
-The first time you open the app, it may take a few seconds to load. After that, it will pop-up as quickly as your device will allow.
-This is not the same as adding a bookmark to our site and does need need or use your device's browser to operate.
Below are screenshots to help guide the way!
