Aloha web app creation

By Demeatrice Webster ago

Answered

Hi everyone, I have a question for an Aloha app feature on my iPhone XR.

The Aloha app has a feature where you can add a web address to your iOS home screen. I loved using this feature for YouTube because it allowed me to use picture in picture mode without purchasing YouTube red. However, when I try to create a Web app for the home screen now I get the following error message:

This site can’t be reached

“The webpage at http://localhost:8246/s might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.

ERR_UNSAFE_REDIRECT”

Does Anyone know a workaround so I can start using the Web app feature again?

Hi there,

Thanks for posting!

Please try to set Safari as your default browser in the device settings. It should do the trick!

Hey there! I have the exact same issue and when I choose Safari as my default browser I get this error “ Safari can't open the page.

The error was: "Not allowed to use restricted network port".”

Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thanks!

I have an iPhone 14, Aloha Browser v4.8.2 and iOS 16.4.1(a). Rebooting didn’t fix it!

In the about section I find “Feedback” and some other options. None of them give me the possibility to attach a screen recording. Here however I can, so I attached it.
