A Progressive Web App is your radio website behaving like an app: installable to the home screen, full-screen, and always up to date - with no app store in between.
How listeners install it
- They open your radio website in their phone browser.
- They tap Add to Home Screen (the browser usually suggests it).
- Your icon lands next to their other apps; tapping it opens a full-screen player experience.
That is the entire funnel - two taps, no store account, no download wait.
Why stations start with PWA
- Included in every plan: each Recupy plan ships a radio web page with PWA; the full Radio CMS PWA comes with Pro.
- Always current: updates deploy instantly with your website - there is no store review cycle.
- One build, every device: iOS, Android and desktop browsers all get the same experience.
Promote the install
Listeners will not install what they do not notice. Mention it on air ("add us to your home screen from the website"), place a hint banner on the site, and include it in your social bios. Small nudges compound into a large installed base.
Next step: native apps
When your audience grows and store visibility starts to matter, branded App Store and Google Play apps join the picture - the two work well side by side.
