I created a React PWA with this tutorial: pwa react tutorial

I added some Add to Homescreen code I got from here: Add to Homescreen tut

I want to test downloading the app, but I can't see the Chrome install link on the url. I see a download link on Kindle, but not the install link I see on Chrome on my laptop.

My code is here: git repo

My goal is to install on a Kindle and have an icon on the Home Screen that I click to launch the app.

What browser are you using there? It may not support a PWA. – Mathias Feb 12 '20 at 19:43
I have a chrome apk installed on the Kindle Fire? – Davtho1983 Feb 12 '20 at 22:55
Oh, I didn't know you could use Chrome on a kindle tablet. Does your PWA when running with an HTTPS URL pass as a valid PWA with the Chrome Lighthouse tool? If there are issues, it usually gives good hints. – Mathias Feb 13 '20 at 13:32
Yeah it passes fine – Davtho1983 Feb 13 '20 at 14:30
