How to Use on macOS

  2. Go to Services → "Open with sho.ng"
  3. sho.ng opens in your browser with the universal link!
Alternative: Install as App (PWA)
Install sho.ng as a web app (browser support varies)

Why isn't this available?

  • App may already be installed
  • Browser needs 30+ seconds of site interaction
  • You may have dismissed the prompt recently
  • Check your browser's address bar for an install icon

Use manual steps below as alternative

The PWA offers quick access from your Dock, but won't handle external music links automatically. The Shortcut above is recommended for full integration.

Manual steps (if your browser supports PWA installation):

  1. Visit sho.ng in your browser
  2. Look for the install icon in the address bar
  3. Or check your browser menu for "Install app" or similar option

💡 Best supported in Chrome, Edge, and Brave. Other browsers may have limited support.

Alternative: Manual Setup
If the iCloud link doesn't work, create the shortcut manually (2 minutes)
