How to create a Peer Group Tools shortcut on mobile devices

Conveniently access the Peer Group Tools application by placing it on your mobile device’s home screen.

The instructions below will help you create an “app” for the Peer Group Tools website, allowing you to access it directly from your home screen.

iOS Devices

  1. Open Safari. Other browsers, such as Chrome, may not work for this.
  2. Navigate to the website you want to save to your home screen by entering the URL of the website you want to create a shortcut to. Make sure you visit the exact page you want to open through the shortcut. Tap "Go."
  3. Tap the Share button at the bottom of the page. It looks like a square with an arrow pointing out of the top.
  4. In the list of options that appear, scroll down until you see Add to Home Screen. Tap this. The Add to Home Screen dialog box will appear.
  5. If desired, choose another name for the website shortcut on your home screen. Click “Add” when you're done. Safari will close automatically and you will be taken to where the icon is located on your iPhone's or iPad's home screen.
  6. Now just tap the new "app" or shortcut on your home screen, and it will open the website in its own navigation window, independent of what you have open in Safari.


Android Devices

  1. Open Chrome.
  2. Navigate to the website or web page you want to pin to your home screen.
  3. Login to Peer Groups Tools
  4. Tap the menu icon (3 dots in the upper right-hand corner) and tap “Install App”.
  5. Click Install
  6. Now just tap the new "app" or shortcut on your home screen, and it will open the website in its own window, independent of what you have open in Chrome.

Note:  If you ever decide you want to remove the website shortcut, you can delete it just like you would any other app on your phone.
