tapcove is a web based tool that converts a single file HTML application into a live web page that can be added to a phone's home screen. The service is designed to accept code generated by AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini, as well as any other source that produces a self contained HTML file. Users paste the code into the tapcove interface, and the application instantly hosts the code at a unique private link. From that page, users can preview the app, set a name, choose an icon, and follow a short guide to install it on their phone's home screen using the browser's native Add to Home Screen feature. No coding, hosting setup, or app store submission is required. The primary workflow involves three steps. First, the user copies the HTML code from an AI chat or other source and pastes it into the provided box. Second, the app becomes live immediately at its own link, where the user can test it, rename it, and select an icon. Third, the user follows on screen instructions to add the app to their phone's home screen, which results in a real app icon that launches the web app in a standalone mode. The service handles all technical aspects, including the web app manifest, app icons, and hosting. It also strips accidental markdown code fences from pasted content. tapcove provides several technical safeguards. Each hosted app runs in a locked down sandbox on its own origin, preventing access to the user's tapcove account, cookies, or other hosted apps. The service scans pasted code for malware and phishing patterns. Each app is assigned a hard to guess link and is excluded from search engine indexing. However, anyone who obtains the link can open the app, so users are advised not to paste real passwords or secret keys into the code. The hosted apps function in any modern mobile or desktop browser, and the install flow works on iOS via Safari and on Android via Chrome and other supported browsers. The first app hosted on tapcove is free and includes a small "Made with tapcove" badge. Users can pay a one time fee of ten dollars to remove the badge from a single app, which remains hosted indefinitely. A monthly subscription of five dollars allows unlimited apps with no badge. The service is accessible at tapcove.app and requires no account creation until the user chooses to publish an app.
