How to add the Edible Forum app icon to your mobile homescreen

While the Edible forum doesn’t currently have a dedicated app in the app store, you can easily add it to your device’s homescreen. This allows you to access it like an app and even receive notification badges when updates occur (as long as you’re logged in). Here’s how:

  4. Select Add to Home Screen from the list of options.
  5. Optionally, edit the name that will appear below the icon, then tap Add.
