It takes three taps. Afterwards it opens like any other app — full screen, its own icon, no address bar — and it still works when you have no signal.
Why bother? Because the moments you need this most — 11:40pm, a hospital corridor, the parking lot before you go back inside — are not moments for typing a web address. One tap should be all it takes.
Open lethimcarryit.com in Safari (it must be Safari, not Chrome).
Tap the Share button — the square with an arrow pointing up.
Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen, then Add.
The icon will appear on your home screen, labelled Carried — short enough to fit without being cut off.
Open lethimcarryit.com in Chrome.
Tap the ⋮ menu at the top right.
Tap Add to Home screen (or Install app), then confirm.
In Chrome or Edge, look for the small install icon at the right of the address bar and click it. In Safari on a Mac, use File → Add to Dock.
