Add CricHD to your Android home screen
CricHD already plays in the browser on your phone, so the fastest way to "install" it is to pin it to the home screen. The icon opens the HD match list full screen, with no file to download and nothing to change in Settings. Three taps, and you are done inside a minute.
One tap, nothing downloaded, nothing to allow. If the button does nothing, the three steps below get the same result.
CricHD is already on this phone — open it from your home screen.
Prefer a proper APK file? Follow this guide instead.
1Open CricHD in Chrome and tap the menu
Type crichd.is into Chrome. When the match list has loaded, tap the three dots in the top right corner of the screen.
2Choose “Add to Home screen” or “Install app”
The menu has one of those two lines; which one you see depends on the phone, and they do the same thing. Tap it.
Chrome sometimes offers this on its own, as a strip across the bottom of the page. Tapping that strip works just as well.
3Confirm with Install
A small box with the CricHD icon comes up. Tap Install; on some phones the button reads Add.
Tap the three lines at the bottom right, then Add page to, then Home screen, and finally Add.
If a small "install" icon appears in the address bar, tapping it is a shortcut to the same place.
✓Done
CricHD now has an icon on your home screen. It opens the match list full screen; pick a match and it plays in HD, exactly as on the site.
If your phone does something else
The menu has no "Add to Home screen" and no "Install app"
That happens when the page opened inside another app, for example the browser built into Facebook, Instagram or WhatsApp. Those browsers cannot pin a page to the home screen.
Copy crichd.is, open Chrome or Samsung Internet yourself, and paste the address into it.
The icon opens with the browser's address bar showing
Chrome made a plain shortcut instead of installing. Remove that icon, repeat the three steps, and in the box tap Install rather than Create shortcut.
You would rather have an app file
Then install the CricHD APK. It takes two minutes and asks for one extra permission.
