Steps for creating a home screen tile on Android devices

1. Launch Chrome for Android and open the website or web page you want to pin to your home screen. Tap the menu button and tap Add to home screen.

2. Enter a name for the shortcut and then tap Add. Chrome will add it to your home screen.

Chrome for Android loads the website as a web app when you tap the icon, so it will get its own entry in the app switcher and won’t have any browser interface getting in the way.
