Biggest opportunity: Swap “offline” for “homescreen”. “offline” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #22. “homescreen” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

2.0%

of downloads still active

At least 400 of 19.8K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,770 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 12 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    The plugin is a great PWA solution. The settings offered by other plugins, simply do not need to be made here. Better a query with static page or dynamic page and in the background the cache strategies are set correctly. Add2Home is a easy solution. It is also good that it explains the steps and refers to literature about PWA to understand the system of PWA.I made two requests to Ricky and both were answered quickly. What more do you need?Maybe a small menu at the bottom so that a history back button is available and other menu buttons can be assigned, then nobody can distinguish this from a native app 🙂 🙂 🙂 Really, really great job 🙂

    La verdad que cumple con lo que dice, es liviano, no recarga la web y no genera errores. Solo tuve un inconveniente que concluí que el problema era el servidor y no el plugin, el desarrollador enseguida se comunico con migo, eso es algo positivo, no siempre uno puede hablar fluidamente con el desarrollador. Por ahora son 5 estrellas y a seguir probando.

    This plugin is a wonderful no-brainer application for those who love to do thing through the wp dashboard. Real smooth and easy. Works flawlessly. What’s more, the Plugin Developer Rickey replies to all support queries ever so promptly and is ever willing to handhold you, should yo get stuck. Just Fantastic !

    I have tried many pWA plugins for our woocommernce website but one of all of them failed to perform and especailly no proper support. Then I find Hyper PWA plugin and it worked well. Support from Rickey is excellent and timely manner. He is very supportive and communication is polite.

    Far behind SuperPWA and PWA for WP. Read carefully in the dashboard because some settings are accessible but become chargeable after 90 days. This topic was modified 4 years, 9 months ago by erisal.
