Is there a DWC app?

Nightowl

I'm assuming there isn't, because I can't find one, but using a browser on my iPhone to view the DWC is not great because of the wasted acreage used by the browsers toolbars, etc., so I was wondering if there is an app in the pipeline?

I'd write one, but I have no idea where to start!

@nightowl999 there was this but its died a death https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/19673/native-app-for-duet3d-rrf-wishlist/25?_=1648112046045
if you can programme flutter, it might be a good one to pick up

@jay_s_uk Programme with flutter? I thought that's what girls did with their eyelashes!

Sorry, I have no idea what flutter is, but it was worth an ask

@nightowl999 I'm not sure how you can achieve this on an iPhone, but on Chrome/Android once you load in DWC you can tap the browsers menu, and select "Add To Home Screen". This will put a DWC icon on your home-screen, which when you tap/launch it, runs DWC like a native app, using the whole screen, without browser toolbars etc. There may be an equivalent on iPhone???

Yes it is much the same. You can add a URL shortcut to the homescreen and when using that shortcut it will behave more like an app than a website.

You can also file a feature/change request for the mobile DWC.

Thank you, @MintyTrebor, @Phaedrux and @zapta. As I only have a small iPhone, it might be an issue anyway, but I'll check it out.

Having said that, it looks like there might be movement on the Native app...
