Install a game from your browser
Install a Hiziv Games title as an app
When a Hiziv Games title is available as a PWA (Progressive Web App), you can install it straight from your browser, without going through a traditional app store.
Once installed, it can launch like a standalone app, with its own icon and a more immersive experience.
On desktop
In a compatible browser, installation is usually offered in one of the following ways:
- an install icon in the address bar
- a button or prompt suggesting that you install the app
- an install option in the browser menu
In practice:
- in browsers based on Chromium, such as Chrome, Edge, Brave, and others, look for an option such as Install app, Install, or Add to desktop
- confirm the installation when prompted
- the game will then appear as a standalone app on your system
Here are two examples of that install icon in the address bar:
Example in one compatible browser.
Example in another compatible browser.
On Android
Installation is often straightforward:
- open the game in your browser, such as Chrome or Brave
- if an install banner or prompt appears, accept it
- otherwise, open the browser menu and look for an option such as Install app or Add to Home screen
Once the installation is complete, the game's icon will be added to your Home screen or app list.
On iPhone and iPad
In Safari, installation usually goes through the Share menu:
- open the game in Safari
- tap the Share button
- choose Add to Home Screen
- confirm
The game will then appear on your Home screen like a regular app.
If installation is not offered
There can be several reasons for this:
- the browser you are using does not properly support PWA installation
- the feature is not available on that device
- the game is not yet offered as an installable experience on that platform
In that case, you can usually keep using the game directly in your browser.
If you are unsure
If a Hiziv Games title supports PWA installation, the relevant instructions will be provided either on its page or inside the application itself.
