PWA: please add more text fields

In the PWA settings of UI Builder, I can set the “name” field of the manifest. However, I’ve observed that some browsers are using the “short_name” field of the manifest as the icon title on mobile devices. Currently, the “short_name” field is automatically set by you to “Backendless App”.

Please add an option to PWA settings to maintain the “short_name” field in addition to the “name” field.

While you are working on this, please also add the option to maintain the “description” field of the manifest. :grinning:

Thanks!

Hello @Klaas_Klever,

Thanks for the suggestion! That’s a great point - I agree that having control over the short_name and description fields would make PWA customization more flexible and complete.

I’ve passed this along to the team, and a Jira ticket has been created for this enhancement. We’ll keep you posted on any updates!

Regards,
Stanislaw
