Add The Texas Public Record to Your Home Screen
Save a TPR shortcut for quicker access to Texas reporting. This creates a shortcut or browser web app; it does not install a native TPR app. Menu names may vary by browser version and device.
iPhone or iPad: Safari
- Open TheTexasPublicRecord.org in Safari.
- Tap the Share button.
- Choose Add to Home Screen. If offered, you may choose whether it opens as a web app.
- Confirm the name and tap Add.
Apple’s Safari instructions explain the Home Screen and web app options.
iPhone or iPad: Chrome
- Open TPR in Chrome.
- Tap Share near the address bar.
- Tap Add to home screen, review the shortcut details and tap Add.
See Google’s Chrome instructions for iPhone and iPad.
Android: Chrome
- Open TPR in Chrome.
- Tap More (⋮) beside the address bar.
- Choose Add to Home screen or, if offered, Install and create shortcut.
- Follow the prompts to add the shortcut.
Google’s Android Chrome instructions show the current install and shortcut options.
Computer: Chrome or Microsoft Edge
Chrome: Open TPR, then select More (⋮) → Cast, save, and share → Install page as app, if that option appears. You can also bookmark the site.
Edge: Open TPR, then select Settings and more (…) → More tools → Apps → Install this site as an app. Edge can then offer shortcuts such as pinning it to Start or the taskbar.
See Google’s Chrome computer instructions and Microsoft’s Edge app instructions.
Other browsers
Open the browser’s menu and look for Add to Home Screen, Create shortcut or Bookmark. The available choice depends on your browser and device. A bookmark is a reliable alternative when a Home Screen option is not available.
