Chrome missing "Install App" option #161
Comments
Hi. Chrome will only offer the ability to install UI3 as a progressive web app if is hosted in a "secure context" (HTTPS). Blue Iris doesn't support HTTPS natively, so typically this is achieved with a reverse proxy server. I have created a reverse proxy server myself which you are free to try (guide here), or you can use pretty much any other HTTPS reverse proxy server if you already have a favorite. It may be possible to do it without HTTPS if you whitelist the origin using this: |
Thanks for the response BP!

Do you happen to know if the BI team is going to have an option at some point to allow to use our own SSL certs? My router can generate via ACME. |
I have no idea. If it ever becomes natively supported, I expect it will be primitive compared to a typical reverse proxy server. E.g. requiring you to host the TLS-supporting endpoint on a separate port with no certificate automation, outdated encryption algorithms, etc. |
I see that
UI3.htm
is referencing theui3manifest
which points back toapplets/manifest.json
but I never see the option to "install app":
I would love to see this as a feature so i can close out this pinned tab and ultimately save resources
