Need to save a website link on my home screen.  I access the menu (3 dots) and on some websites, "Save to Home Screen" is an option but on other web sites, that option does not appear.

 

Tried googling to no avail. 

 

Do some websites prevent you saving a link to their site?

It's possible that some secure websites won't allow you to save to your home screen, but using either Samsung Internet or Google chrome, the option is there on both browsers.

You can also create a bixby routine to launch a website, and then just paste in the link, create a shortcut icon on your home screen, and voila!

Hey Samsung_9brVhlm,
@ RedDogRabbit, you are correct. It is not a device issue because some secure websites won't allow us to save them to the home screen.
Please follow the suggestions and images provided by RedDogRabbit.
Thank you RedDogRabbit for providing the information.
