Chapter 1: Introducing Safari/WebKit Development for iPhone 3.0
Launching: All native applications are launched from the main Home screen of the iPhone and
iPod touch (see Figure 1-3). In the original iPhone OS release, Apple provided no way for Web
apps to be launched from here, requiring Web apps to be accessed from the Safari Bookmarks
list. Fortunately, subsequent releases of the iPhone OS have given users the ability to add “Web
Clip” icons for their Web apps (such as the Cup-O-Joe Web app in Figure 1-4).
