# PWA Installation

Last updated · MAR 2026 · [Read as Markdown](/docs/guides/pwa-installation.md)

# Install as App (PWA)

Put your AVCodex agent on a field tech's phone home screen, on a programmer's laptop, or on the iPad mounted next to a control panel. One tap and the agent opens full-screen, no browser chrome, no URL bar.

* * *

Your AVCodex agent can be installed as a Progressive Web App (PWA). Users get a home-screen icon and a full-screen experience without going through the App Store or Play Store. This is the fastest path to getting an agent into the hands of field techs, programmers, and on-site staff during a deployment.

## [What a PWA Gives You# ](#what-a-pwa-gives-you)

Feature

Why it matters for AV

**Home screen icon**

A field tech taps once to open the agent, no hunting in a browser

**Full screen**

No browser chrome, no URL bar, looks like a native tool

**Splash screen**

Branded loading screen on launch (your logo, your colors)

**Fast loading**

Cached for instant startup, useful in a server room with weak Wi-Fi

**No app store**

Skip Apple/Google review cycles, deploy in minutes

## [Setting Up the PWA# ](#setting-up-the-pwa)

**1\. Open the Share Page**

In your AVCodex agent, click **Share** in the navigation.

**2\. Find Deploy as PWA**

Look for the **Deploy as PWA** card and click **Add Deployment**.

**3\. Copy Your Agent URL**

The dialog shows the URL users will visit to install the PWA. Copy it. You'll send this to field techs, share it on QR-code support stickers in conference rooms, or post it on the integrator's internal portal.

**4\. Generate Splash Screens**

Click **Refresh** in the Splash Screen section to generate branded splash screens. These appear when users launch your PWA from the home screen.

## [User Install Instructions# ](#user-install-instructions)

Share these with the people who will use the agent (field techs, programmers, end clients).

### [On iPhone (iOS)# ](#on-iphone-ios)

1.  Open the agent URL in **Safari**.
2.  Tap the **Share** button (square with arrow).
3.  Scroll down and tap **Add to Home Screen**.
4.  Name the app and tap **Add**.

### [On Android# ](#on-android)

1.  Open the agent URL in **Chrome**.
2.  Tap the **menu** (three dots).
3.  Tap **Add to Home screen** or **Install app**.
4.  Follow the prompts to install.

### [On Desktop (Chrome)# ](#on-desktop-chrome)

1.  Open the agent URL in Chrome.
2.  Click the **install icon** in the address bar (or menu > Install).
3.  Click **Install** in the prompt.

## [PWA Customization# ](#pwa-customization)

The PWA inherits your agent's branding:

-   **App icon**: Set in Build > Customize.
-   **App name**: Your agent's name.
-   **Brand color**: Your agent's primary color.
-   **Splash screen**: Generated from your logo and brand color.

To refresh the PWA appearance:

1.  Go to **Build** > **Customize**.
2.  Update your logo and brand color.
3.  Go to **Share** > **Deploy as PWA**.
4.  Click **Refresh** to regenerate splash screens.

## [Updates# ](#updates)

Changes to the agent deploy automatically:

-   Name, logo, and brand colors update on next launch.
-   Content and settings sync in real time.
-   Users see updates the next time they reopen the PWA.

If you need to push an immediate update (after fixing a bad answer in your agent's training, for example), use the **Refresh Now** button in the PWA deployment dialog to trigger a cache refresh.

## [Troubleshooting# ](#troubleshooting)

### [Install Option Not Appearing# ](#install-option-not-appearing)

PWA install requires:

1.  **HTTPS**: The agent must be served over HTTPS (all AVCodex agents use HTTPS).
2.  **Safari on iOS**: Other iOS browsers don't support PWA install.
3.  **Chrome on Android**: Use Chrome for the most reliable Android install flow.

### [Splash Screen Not Showing# ](#splash-screen-not-showing)

1.  Confirm you generated splash screens in the PWA dialog.
2.  Your agent needs a logo set for splash screens to generate.
3.  Click **Refresh** to regenerate after changing the logo.

### [App Not Updating# ](#app-not-updating)

PWAs cache content for speed. To see updates:

1.  Close the app completely.
2.  Reopen. Updates load automatically.
3.  Or use **Refresh Now** in the PWA dialog to push an immediate cache refresh.
