On a Chrome or other Chromium browser (Brave, Kiwi..) on Android
When I click "add to home screen" from the Brave/Chrome menu, on some sites the icon that is added does not open website but instead opens a custom app created for the website (so called "PWA").
I want to create a simple website link that opens the website in a browser (so I can use search / see the url from the address bar and so on).
How can I do that with Brave or Chrome?
After tedious search I was finally able to do it.
Simply put - with Brave/Chrome it seems that it is not possible to add a non-PWA shortcut when PWA-version is defined at the web pages web manifest.
HOWEVER there are separate apps on the app store (I don't link to any specific one here but search for example "create shortcut launcher") that allow you to create "custom" shortcuts. With these apps you can create a simple URL shortcut and define which browser is used to open it.
This solves my problem and this question.
To get the corect icon you have to separately download and set the icon which is quite tedious so if anyone solves how to do this with chrome/chromium then please respond and I will change the accepted answer.
