No more PC App?

My computer crashed and I went to re download the app for Stash Hub and all I can get to is a webpage. I used to have a little app I could pin to my toolbar,but it’s gone and I just really want to cry. I used it everyday. Please,please tell me I’ve overlooked it somehow because it’s really going to be hard for me to work with having to sign into a webpage every time I need or want to check something or get an idea or just want to see if I have a pattern or just anything. It might not seem like a big deal but I’m neurodivergent and I just feel like I’ve lost something important to the way I work.

Hi @AngJester,

We never had a desktop app.

HOWEVER, if you have a Mac(book) with an M-series processor you can go to the Mac App Store and search for Stash Hub and you can download the “mobile” version.

The web and mobile versions all work the same.

What computer do you have?

@TheWizard I have a Windows 11 laptop. When using Google Chrome browser last year (ages ago :woman_shrugging:t2:) it sort of offers to save the web version as an app. Or maybe I saved it as a shortcut to the URL link on my desktop (I can’t remember :joy:).

Anyway, I was able to save the sort-of-app to my windows desktop, and from there I could add it to my Taskbar as a quick launching shortcut.

@AngJester is this :right_arrow_curving_up::backhand_index_pointing_up:t3: what you are describing please :smiling_face: :red_question_mark:

Yes, that must be it. I’ll see if I can figure out how to do that with my Chrome browser. Thank you!

Yay! For anyone who wants to to this, open the Stash Hub webpage with your fabric and patterns, click the 3 dots in the top right, go down to “Click Save Share” and open that drop down, and it has a button that says “Install Stash Hub as App” And now I have my standalone app back. Thank you @ClaireSews for pointing me in the right direction :smiley: I can open this without having to have any other windows or browsers open which is exceedingly convenient. I also find it so much easier to toggle between when adding pattern and fabric information because I can open it in full view side by side with the window I’m working in.
