How to make icons for web addresses on iPhone / iPod Touch

Posted on July 4, 2009

It’s quite an earlier Saturday morning in here and because I couldn’t sleep more, I start playing with my iPod Touch.

What I discovered it’s quite helpfully for everyone I guess. It’s about making shortcuts / icons on the screen for preferred web addresses. This means when you are accessing frequently some websites, you can create icons directly into the applications list onto your iPod Touch / iPhone screen and you can access these websites very easy and fast.

Steps:
1. open Safari Browser on your iPod Touch / iPhone
2. open your preferred website
3. tap the “+” sign on the bottom of the screen

4. tap “Add to Home Screen”

iphone_icons_creating2

5. give it a name and press “Add”

Now you’ll have a small print screen or the website icon, as an icon into the apps list on your iPhone screen :)
Nice huh? ;)

Hey you Smoozi-Noozi,
this is Ken.

What you read is a Computer Tech Blog. Sounds like a Technobuble Boogeyman but is not that technically (I want it to be). Sure thing it might be helpful if you know something about web developing as I am also writing about CSS, (X)HTML, JavaScript and other "non-friendly" things.

I'm not selling and buying anything here. Nor you. Be smart.
