I created a webview shell for the kbin.social site (kbin.social)

I created this simple Android app so that I could view the kbin.social in a dedicated browser.

It's not a dedicated app like, for example, is RIF for Reddit, it's simply a dedicated browser for kbin.social: once you open the app you will see the kbin.social site as you would see it in any browser.

I created this app for myself, because I wanted to interact with the kbin.social site in a browser other than the default browser on my phone, and I am sharing it in case it might be useful to others.

You can get the code and the apk from github: https://github.com/anemomylos/shell4kbin

In the drop down menu in your mobile browser, there should be a "install as app" choice. That does exactly what your code does.

Thanks. I'm technologically dumb and have been working with a site link I made a button on my homescreen somehow - except I keep forgetting to close all the tabs cause it just opens a new one in my mobile browser everytime.

I had 0 chance of getting op's thingy to work on my own but what you suggested worked.
