Dan~ Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I wouldn't mind making a few apps on my iphone for a giggle. I'm more interested in making web apps though. Do I still need to get the SDK + Xcode or whatever it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f0rk_b0mb Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Well, if you go to the website you want to make an app out of, hit the box with an arrow coming out and tap add to home screen. You can rename it and the site's icon should show up as the icon. If it doesn't, it'll just give you a picture of the site. Is that what you are trying to do?

Dan~ Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 You can do that, but certain sites that you save, when you click on it, there's no safari gui and looks like an app instead of just a shortcut. But I want to learn how to do that as I make websites etc, but wasn't sure for a "web app" whether I need to do it in the xcode etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadrack Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 You can use XCode to develop web apps that target iPhone but it is not required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
