How to Create a Pseudo SmartSuite Desktop App

Hi SmartSuite Community,

There is a feature request on the canny roadmap for a Desktop App, which I want as well. However, until that comes out, I have a workaround that I've found helpful using Chrome's shortcut feature, which I hope you will find helpful as well!

Here is a quick loom video walking you through the steps on how to create the "app"

The written instructions are:

  • Navigate to Smartusite and login

  • Click the three dots to the right of your profile picture > Select More Tools > Select Create Shortcut

  • When the dialog box opens, be sure to check the "Open as window" box > Then Click Create

  • A new "App" will open without all the browser tools and bookmarks, etc.

  • You can either pin the app to your taskbar and/or the shortcut can be found on your desktop

Pro: You can open multiple windows just as if you were in a browser

Con: You still have to log in every time you are timed/logged out

I hope you find this helpful!
