miTT PWA turns your WordPress website into a Progressive Web App (PWA): a site your visitors can install to the home screen and open like a native app – on Android, iOS, Windows and macOS. It works offline using Service Workers, loads faster from cache, and gives your mobile visitors an app-like experience without building a separate native app.

No coding required – install the plugin, set up the manifest and service worker, and your site is installable.

What the free version does

  • Installable app – visitors add your site to their home screen (Android, desktop, iOS via Safari)
  • Offline ready – the Service Worker caches your pages and static files
  • Offline fallback page – a custom page shown when there is no connection
  • Cache-First strategy that adapts to the network connection
  • Static cache for CSS, JavaScript and images
  • Cache exceptions – exclude URLs you don’t want cached
  • Web App Manifest – name, icons, theme colour and start URL
  • Install prompt and app screenshot
