The user interface has been to work on phones as small an iPhone 5\/SE. On Android it works just fine on Firefox and Chrome. For Android, it works best (seemingly) if you have at least version 9 on your device. This offers the best feature set and supports a version of Chrome with better options. Although the app works in Opera, MS Edge, and Dolphin browsers, they do not offer the opportunity to &#8216;Install&#8217; the app. On iPhone it has been tested in Safari and Chrome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The app has been designed to run as a PWA (Progressive Web App). This is a cool bit of tech introduced to allow Web Apps, like this scoring app, to look and behave like a native app on your phone. Some cool tech bits have been assembled to enable this. If you look at the browser menu in both FF and Chrome, there should be an option to Install the app on the phone (Android &#8211; <em>Install<\/em> or <em>Install app<\/em>, iPhone &#8211; Share &#8211; <em>Add to Home Screen<\/em>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"498\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130648_Firefox-498x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-134\" style=\"width:249px;height:512px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130648_Firefox-498x1024.jpg 498w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130648_Firefox-146x300.jpg 146w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130648_Firefox-768x1579.jpg 768w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130648_Firefox-747x1536.jpg 747w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130648_Firefox-996x2048.jpg 996w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130648_Firefox.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 498px) 100vw, 498px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Firefox<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"498\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130658_Chrome-498x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-135\" style=\"width:249px;height:512px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130658_Chrome-498x1024.jpg 498w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130658_Chrome-146x300.jpg 146w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130658_Chrome-768x1579.jpg 768w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130658_Chrome-747x1536.jpg 747w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130658_Chrome-996x2048.jpg 996w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Screenshot_20230429-130658_Chrome.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 498px) 100vw, 498px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Chrome<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_0024-576x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-346\" style=\"width:288px;height:512px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_0024-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_0024-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/yourbridgegame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_0024.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Safari on iPhone<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This gives two benefits:-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The application will install to the App Drawer (Chrome) and also on the home screen<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The application can be &#8216;pinned&#8217; to the screen<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Screen pinning is an important feature if you wish to leave your device on a table unsupervised.
