1. How Safe Offline Browsing Works

MenuMinute can keep some previously visited public pages available offline. It cannot promise that every dish, image or current availability status is saved.

If your mobile network drops while deciding between pasta or steak, you will not get a frustrating error screen—you can keep reading descriptions and browsing photos seamlessly.

Submitting Orders Offline

You need a working connection to submit an order or service request. If offline, the app will politely ask you to connect before submitting.

2. Adding to Your Home Screen (PWA)

On iPhone (Safari): Tap the Share button at the bottom of the screen (the square with an arrow pointing up) and select 'Add to Home Screen'.

On Android (Chrome): Tap the three dots menu at the top right and select 'Add to Home Screen' or 'Install App'.

This places an icon right on your phone's home screen, behaving just like a native app with zero download size!

Frequently Asked Questions

Does saving the menu take up space on my phone?

Hardly any at all! A MenuMinute menu takes less than 1 megabyte of cache—a tiny fraction of a typical mobile app.
