Do you have a favorite website that you visit on a regular basis with your iPhone?
If so, you probably have that site bookmarked in Safari so you can quickly launch it whenever you want to visit it.
But did you know you can actually place an icon for your favorite site(s) right on your iPhone’s Home screen?
In fact, you can even create an icon for any specific page, not just the site’s home page.
Having a dedicated icon for your favorite website or page will allow you to go straight to it with a single tap without having to first open Safari.
Just tap the icon, and boom – you’ll instantly see it displayed in the browser.
You can easily create direct-link icons to your favorite websites and web pages. Just follow the steps below:
Note: The steps below will work on an iPad as well.
1 – Visit the website (or specific web page) in your Safari browser.
2 – Tap the Action button (the square button with the arrow pointing upwards).
3 – Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen.
4 – Tap the Done button. The icon should now be on your Home screen.
That’s all there is to it. From now on you’ll be able to go straight to your favorite website simply by tapping an icon on the Home screen.
Bonus tip: Does your iPhone’s battery tend to run out of juice right when you need it most? You’ll never have to worry about being stuck with a dead phone battery again as long as you keep this handy. (#ad)
