Install LENS as an App with Edge

In the case that your LENS Board was not imaged with LENS as an icon on your desktop, to create a web app on the desktop that treats the LENS webpage for an app-like experience:

  • Navigate to LENS on your browser

  • Click the Settings button (three dots in the upper-right corner) of the browser

  • Click Apps

  • Click Install this site as an App

Disclaimer: The screenshots in this article were captured using an earlier version of LENS. While some visuals may look different, the overall functionality remains essentially the same.

  • Choose in a meaningful name for the shortcut

  • Click Install

  • Customize your App installation settings

  • Click Allow
