Open Your Blog in Just One Tap with This Shortcut
You visit your blog on your phone quite often I'm guessing.
To see how a post or image looks. To reference something within a post. Just to admire it because you're awesome.
Well, did you know you could open up your blog on your phone in just ONE click? Booyah.
The 10-Minute Touch Up is a quick, weekly challenge to get you DOING, not just reading about doing. Consider it a way to touch up your blogging just 10 minutes at a time!
Challenge: Make a shortcut on your phone that takes you straight to your blog in one click.
Why: Tiiiiiiiiime-saver!
How to Do It
These instructions are for an iPhone but I included Android instructions at the end too!
1. Open up Safari and visit your blog.
2. Tap Safari's Share Button.
It's that little box with the arrow at the bottom of the screen. You know the one.
3. Tap Add to Home Screen.
4. Adjust Name as Needed.
Once you tap Add to Home Screen, the window below pops up for you to adjust the name and URL. When I added mine, it pulled up my entire site title and tagline so I just deleted the tagline. When you're done, click Add.
5. Move shortcut to wherever you want it.
I put mine on my home screen towards to bottom right since my thumb is closest to those buttons. It's all about speed, baby.
For Android: Open up your blog in your browser, then click the menu button and select “Add shortcut to home.”
