This plugin uses Add to home screen’s Cubiq script to place a floating balloon inviting the user to add a website to their home screen as a standard iOs application.
It’s a good way to retain visitors coming to your blog, especially if you don’t want to develop an expensive application just to let them read articles of your WordPress blog.
The floating balloon is compatible with all recent iPhones and iPads.
2020 UPDATE : The Add to home screen WP Plugin supports the latest versions of WordPress, and its use with the main Progressive Web App (PWA) extensions is highly recommended !
You can now use a PWA WordPress plugin, like PWA for WP & AMP for instance, to turn your WordPress blog into a kind of native mobile app, without the constraints of native mobile app (store submission, costs, etc…).
With PWA coupled with Add to home screen WP Plugin, you will be able to display the legendary floating balloon that invites your visitors to add your blog to their iOs device, and then your blog will load as a PWA.
This combination is the best way to increase visitor loyalty, without being obliged to upload a costly native mobile app into App Store.
On Android devices, PWA extensions usually provide a popup to invite users to add your blog to their device. But in iOs devices, this popup are not native. That’s why this plugin is very useful in addition of a PWA plugin.
See nice demo with the video below :
