Home-screen access for museums & attractions
Help visitors save your attraction website so they can find visitor information and guide links. Keep your existing website and offer branded browser instructions—not a replacement business application.

Add this website to your home screen to find visitor information and guide links.
Why it matters for museums & attractions
For museums & attractions, the useful question is whether visitors have a reason to return to your attraction website. A saved entry point can be convenient, but it does not prove higher retention, revenue or conversion. Start with the existing task: find visitor information and guide links.
How teams use it
Offer home-screen guidance where visitors can find visitor information and guide links. Keep the normal navigation available and make the popup dismissible.
Check accessibility, map readability and connectivity in visitor areas. Provide another way to access essential directions if the connection fails.
The popup does not download audio tours or maps. Offline visitor guides need a separate caching implementation and device testing.
Install only where you have code access
Configure the popup for the exact published HTTPS address. Follow your builder’s setup guide and verify that address, not an editor preview. Code on your own website cannot alter an external portal, checkout or iframe.
What to check on a real device
Check accessibility, map readability and connectivity in visitor areas. Provide another way to access essential directions if the connection fails.
What this setup does not provide
The popup does not download audio tours or maps. Offline visitor guides need a separate caching implementation and device testing.
Separate guidance from full PWA capabilities
On iPhone, visitors can follow Safari’s home-screen action. Other browsers offer different installation or shortcut actions depending on site configuration. The popup alone does not add offline caching, guarantee a standalone app launch or subscribe anyone to web push.

Common questions
Does this replace software used by museums & attractions?
The popup does not download audio tours or maps. Offline visitor guides need a separate caching implementation and device testing.
Can I add the popup to a third-party hosted portal?
Only if that provider permits suitable page-level custom code and you have permission. A popup on your main domain is not an integration with another provider’s portal.
Does a verified snippet mean someone installed the website?
No. It confirms the popup code executed on the configured website. Test the home-screen launch separately; a popup view or instruction click is not a confirmed installation.
