I have a PWA app that correctly prompts users to add the app to their home screen. The problem is that IMHO this automatic behavior is bad user experience because 90% of the time, the prompt is perceived like an annoying popup and users just close it.
What I think is way better UX, would be for users to look for a way to "install the app", like in the footer of any page where you usually see "Download on Android" or "Get the app in the App Store" or, after some specific interactions some popup I CONTROL would appear WHEN I FEEL the user is sufficiently engaged with my app and might be interested into saving it to its home screen.
I have done some searches and I have not been able to find any way to trigger the "add to home screen" popup when I need to. Did I miss something? How do you prompt for "add to homescreen" a second or third time?
Looking for any solution on Android and iPhone.
