The PWA one! The 1.5 release of Reactive Trader includes full support for running as a Progressive Web Application (PWA) on your desktop.

Reactive Trader was already installable as a PWA app on Android and iOS devices, but can now be installed on your desktop too. This is supported when running from Google Chrome or Microsoft’s new Edge browser.

Progressive Web Application

Desktop

When running from the browser on your desktop, you will now be prompted to install the app as a desktop application (if this is supported by your browser), which will add an application shortcut and run the web page in a window on your desktop.

The PWA version supports theming, popping out windows, and desktop notifications, just like the other versions of Reactive Trader.

RT PWA

Mobile

On Android and iOS, we have made it easier to install Reactive Trader as an application as well. You will now be prompted to do so when you browse to the website on your mobile device.

On Android, you can use Google’s built-in support to add the application to your home screen. On iOS, a pop-up appears with instructions on how to add the application to your home screen.

Currency filter changes to a drop-down for small widths

Reactive Trader has always supported responsive design principles, which allows us to support both desktop and mobile platforms. As part of this release, we have improved the currency filter for the live rates, so that it becomes a drop-down when the view becomes too narrow for buttons.
