Add an install prompt to Framer
To add an install prompt on Framer, paste the InstantPWA snippet into Custom Code via Site Settings → General → Custom Code → End of <head>. The popup captures the browser's native install signal where supported and falls back to a guided walkthrough on iOS Safari, so every visitor sees a clear path to installing your Framer site as an app.
Steps
- 1
Open Custom Code
Go to Site Settings → General → Custom Code → End of <head>.
- 2
Paste the InstantPWA snippet
Drop the one-line async script tag in the Framer head section — no build step or dependency install.
- 3
Configure the trigger
In your InstantPWA dashboard, set when the popup appears — on page load, after N seconds, or after a scroll/engagement threshold.
- 4
Publish
Save/publish in Framer so the change goes live — most builders require an explicit publish step before custom code runs.
- 5
Verify on a phone
Open your live Framer URL on a mobile device (not the editor preview) to confirm the popup renders.
Constraints to know
- Any paid Framer site plan supports Custom Code; the free plan can add it in the editor but it won't run on the framer.website preview domain.
- Framer redeploys the whole site on publish, so custom code changes take a few seconds to propagate, not instantly like content edits.
FAQ
Does the install prompt work on iOS Framer visitors?+
iOS Safari never fires the native beforeinstallprompt event, so InstantPWA shows a share-sheet walkthrough instead — visitors still get a clear add-to-home-screen path.
Will this conflict with other scripts on my site?+
No — InstantPWA is a single first-party async script with no third-party dependencies, so it doesn't block or compete with analytics or chat widgets.
Do I need to touch anything else in Framer besides Site Settings?+
No — the head snippet is the only integration point; InstantPWA hosts the manifest and service worker for you.
