</info>
<title>How to reinstall a Webapp</title>
<p><app>Software</app> supports managing two types of web apps:</p>
<list type="numbered">
<item><p>Web apps for which AppStream metainfo has been shipped with <app>Software</app>. See <link href="https://gitlab.gnome.org/mwleeds/gnome-pwa-list/-/blob/main/README.md">README.md</link>.</p></item>
<item><p>Web apps which have been installed using <link href="https://apps.gnome.org/Epiphany/">GNOME Web</link>.</p></item>
</list>
<p>The first type are displayed as available to install in <app>Software</app> (when this functionality has been enabled by the distribution), whereas the second type only show up in <app>Software</app> after they have been installed via GNOME Web. If you uninstall such an app and want to reinstall it, you must do so using GNOME Web.</p>
<p>Here are the steps to install a web app using GNOME Web:</p>
<steps>
<item><p>Click the app <gui style="button">Menu</gui> button in the top right as shown in the image below.</p></item>
<item><p>Click on <gui style="menuitem">Install as Web App…</gui> menu item. This should open the web app creation dialog.</p></item>
<item><p>Click the <gui style="button">Create</gui> button to create and install the web app.</p></item>
</steps>
<media type="image" src="figures/install-webapp-from-gnome-web.png" mime="image/png" width="800" its:translate="no"/>
<p>The web app should now show up in <app>Software</app>s <gui style="tab">Installed</gui> tab.</p>
