Webclient as App on Mac?

[craigreilly]

Keep shutting down your 3cx Webclient by accident on Mac... Try this:

Open Chrome:

• type chrome://flags in Chrome’s address bar.
• Change/set the following flag settings:
  1. The new bookmark app system - ENABLED
  2. Allow hosted apps to be opened in windows - ENABLED
  3. Creation of app shims for hosted apps on Mac - DISABLED
  4. Quit notification for hosted apps - ENABLED
     .
  So, they look like this:

NEXT

• Restart Chrome
• Navigate to the page you want to run/launch as a Web Application (e.g. https://vpbxdomain.3cx.us/webclient/)
• Click on the hamburger/'three dots menu' button in the top far right of Chrome.
  • Select 'More Tools'
  • 'Add to Applications…' or 'Create Shortcut...' (has changed over versions)
  • A small window will pop up - make changes to the Title as you like
  • Check/Tick 'Open in (Separate) Window'

LASTLY

• The shortcut will actually be a '.app' folder with all the usually files an subfolders, like any Mac Application and...
• the Shortcut/Dockable Icon should appear in your "User Applications" or the 'Chrome Apps' Folder within that folder:
  • EITHER '/Users/<your username>/Applications/Chrome Apps'
  • OR '/Users/<your username>/Applications/Chrome Apps'
• Move or Copy the shortcut anyway you want, including dragging to the Mac Dock
