Hi, I need to change the message from Add to Home Screen to Install. How can I do that?

Message is designed by browser, do not know about way to customize it.
Better solution may be to use custom install button,but that is not developed yet.

Okay, its a very strange behaviour of browser because when i access my website from 2 different devices it shows Add to home screen and from the same devices and browsers when I tried with other 2 websites listed on this forum it showed Install instead of Add to home screen. I found a forum which isn't related to Osclass that shows how to change it but because I am not sure which files they are referring to edit I can't do anything. Anyways that's not very important. It would be great if a custom install button is developed that can be placed in footer from where users can install it whenever they wan't.

Thanks

Yes it is simply replacing existing one with custom one. I would not go into this as the "standard" one is more reliable and will surely work on all browsers, as browser generate this box by itself.

Okay, so finally my PWA popup message have changed from Add to Home Screen to Install which I checked on both the devices which were getting Add to Home Screen popup before. Only changes that I did with my previous PWA plugin settings is that earlier I had not added any screenshots in the Manifest > Screenshot and now after I added few screenshots, I just un-installed and checked and it gave me the Install button when I cleared caches of my browser and opened my website.
