About

Fix the "Address Bar" issue in your Progressive Web Apps (PWA) and take full control of your installed web apps.

Do you hate it when your installed PWA shows a browser address bar (URL bar) at the top? This usually happens when a PWA is installed from a subdirectory (e.g., example.com/app/) but restricts you from navigating to other parts of the domain.
PWA Scope Fixer solves this by allowing you to inject a custom, dynamic Web Manifest into any website. You can define your own Start URL (Scope), effectively removing the address bar and forcing the app to behave like a true native application (display: standalone).

✨ Key Features:
✅ Fix Scope & Address Bar Issues: Define a custom Start URL to include the entire domain or specific paths, removing the top browser bar.
📱 Force Standalone Mode: Ensures your app always opens in a window without browser UI.
🎨 Customize Appearance: Set your own App Name, Short Name, Theme Color, and Background Color.
💾 Per-Site Settings: Your configurations are automatically saved for each domain.
🚀 One-Click Install: Trigger the PWA installation prompt directly from the extension popup.
🛠 Manage Apps: Quick link to chrome://apps to easily remove old or broken PWA installations.

How to use:
Navigate to the website you want to install.
Click the PWA Scope Fixer extension icon.
Customize the Start URL (e.g., shorten it to the root domain), Name, and Colors.
Click "Apply & Save".
Click "Install PWA".
Privacy & Open Source:
This extension runs entirely locally on your browser. No data is sent to external servers.
