We'll show you how to add the BIKEIOWA site on your home screen, without the hassle of an app store.
Even though BIKEIOWA offers two mobile apps, we recommend using the current website for your browsing experience no matter what device you are using.
Check out the image and see how you can add the BIKEIOWA icon for faster access!
With the new enhanced version of BIKEIOWA, the design incorporates some native app-like functionality. We call it a progressive web application because the site works for every user, regardless of browser choice.
Google explains that these kinds of progressive web apps bridge the gap between classic responsive websites and native apps, but with no installation and no updates!
Responsive - The site is responsive and will fit any form factor: desktop, mobile, or tablet.
Current - The site is always up to date, thanks to the lightweight pages that load fast.
Engageable - Users can interact via comments, news and events.
Navigation - The site has app-style interactions and navigation.
