Summary

The new favicon work in 4.0.0 (PR #18 — SND mono-S mark + dark Vault-bg fill + sage outline across all the PNG sizes, plus the Safari mask-icon and theme-color) made the PWA install path look right in every browser, but the README never mentioned it. This documents the install option without changing any code.

Changes

  • Updates the Browser row in the Clients table with a link to the new PWA sub-section.
  • Adds an "Install as a Progressive Web App" sub-section listing the install path on:
    • desktop Chromium (Chrome / Edge / Brave / Arc / Opera) — address-bar install icon
    • Android Chrome — `⋮ → Install app`
    • iOS / iPadOS Safari — share button → "Add to Home Screen"
    • Firefox desktop — caveat that Mozilla removed PWA install in Fx 87
  • Notes that operator-customised `UI_CUSTOM_ASSETS_*` icons flow into the PWA install too — no separate icon set to maintain.

No code changes. The manifest, icons, and theme color are already in place from earlier work.
