How to Add Our Website to Your Phone’s Home Screen

Want to check the calendar, view recent updates, or fill out a gift aid form in just one tap? You can add the 1st Herne Bay website directly to your phone’s home screen so it acts just like a handy little app!

Here is how to do it in a few quick steps:

For Apple iPhone Users (Safari)

  1. Open the Safari browser and go to our website.
  2. Look at the bottom of your screen and tap the Share button (it looks like a little square with an arrow pointing upwards).
  3. Scroll down the menu a little bit and tap Add to Home Screen.
  4. If you like, you can shorten the name so it looks neat on your screen (e.g., “1st Herne Bay”).
  5. Tap Add in the top right corner – and you’re done!

For Android Users (Chrome)

  1. Open the Chrome browser and go to our website.
  2. Tap the three little dots menu icon in the top right corner of your screen.
  3. Tap Add to Home screen from the list.
  4. Give it a quick name if you want to, then tap Add.
  5. Your phone might ask you to confirm by holding and dragging the icon, or it will just place it on your home screen automatically!

👍 Top Tip: Once you’ve added it, move the new icon right to your phone’s main front page next to your usual apps. It makes checking for section updates absolutely effortless!
