Install 9 Puzzles as an app

9 Puzzles can sit on your home screen like any other app: its own icon, its own window, and it keeps working offline. It comes straight from your browser, so there's no app store and nothing to pay.

iPhone and iPad

  1. Open 9puzzles.com in Safari.
  2. Tap the Share button: the square with an arrow pointing up.
  3. Tap Add to Home Screen. If it isn't there, scroll down the list.
  4. Tap Add.

Chrome, Edge and Firefox on iPhone have the same option in their Share menu.

Android

  1. Open 9puzzles.com in Chrome.
  2. Tap the menu at the top right.
  3. Tap Install app (on some phones, Add to Home screen), then Install.

Samsung Internet, Firefox and Edge have the same option in their menus.

Chrome or Edge on a computer

On Windows, a Mac, Linux or a Chromebook:

  1. Open 9puzzles.com.
  2. Click the install icon at the right end of the address bar.
  3. Click Install.

No icon? Use the browser's menu instead: in Chrome, Cast, save and share → Install page as app; in Edge, Apps → Install this site as an app. The app opens in its own window and joins your other apps in the Start menu, the Dock or the launcher.

Safari on a Mac

On macOS Sonoma or later:

  1. Open 9puzzles.com in Safari.
  2. In the File menu, choose Add to Dock.
  3. Click Add.

Firefox on a computer

Firefox on a computer has no option to install a site as an app. To install 9 Puzzles, open it in Chrome or Edge, or keep it as a bookmark: it works just as well in a tab.

Good to know

  • The app is the same site, so it stays up to date by itself.
  • Your progress, stats and streak live in the browser you play in. A different browser starts fresh, and so does the app on iPhone, iPad and Safari on a Mac: it keeps its own, separate from Safari's.

Removing it

On a phone or tablet, press and hold the icon and remove it, as with any app. On a computer, open the app's menu and choose Uninstall. On a Mac, delete a Safari app from the Applications folder in your home folder.
