Add bookmark to Safari on iPhone when an application is installed?

Question

I'd like to add a bookmark to a users Mobile Safari bookmarks when they install my iPhone application.

I don't want the user to have to do it manually, i'd like my iphone app to install the bookmark (actually a javascript based bookmark, e.g. javascript:....)... Does anyone know of anyway to do this?

Also, I know that an app can register url types to be handled by itself, but I don't want the url to launch my app, I want it to stay in Safari. If my app could be loaded without leaving Safari, then that'd be great, but I don't think that that's possible...

Thanks!

Answer 1

Not currently possible. The best I've seen is launching a page in mobile Safari with instructions on how to manually add the bookmark, or telling the user to add it on desktop Safari and sync the bookmark back to the iPhone.

This is not currently possible. If it's something you'd like to see, you should file an enhancement request with Apple.
