Making a "Save as bookmark" button in mobile web app

Question

I'm currently developing a web application based on jQuery Mobile. I would like to add a dialog for the first time users which would provide a button, which in turn can be clicked to save a bookmark to the website. This solution should work for both iOS and Android. Is there any way to do that? I saw bubble.js working for iOS but i need a common solution for both the aforementioned platforms. Is it possible?

Is there some literature on this on the internet?

Answer 1

Yes it is done and thus (presumably) very possible indeed.

Take a look at https://github.com/okamototk/jqm-mobile-bookmark-bubble

It supports android. Haven't tried it myself but I've seen it recommended.
