You can add a link to a website to your Android home screen using your browser. Here's how:
-
Open the web page: Launch your preferred web browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Samsung Internet) and navigate to the URL you want to add to your home screen.
-
Access the browser menu: Look for the menu icon, usually represented by three vertical dots (⋮) or three horizontal lines (☰). Tap this icon.
-
Find the "Add to Home screen" option: In the menu that appears, look for an option that says something like "Add to Home screen," "Add to shortcut," or similar.
-
Customize the title (optional): A dialog box will appear, allowing you to customize the title of the shortcut that will appear on your home screen. This is the name that will be displayed under the icon. You can change it to something shorter or more descriptive if you wish.
-
Add the shortcut: Tap "Add" to add the link to your home screen. Some browsers might give you the option to automatically place the icon or to manually choose a location on your home screen.
Now you should find a new icon on your home screen that, when tapped, will directly open the web page you specified.
