Hi there! I understand you're having trouble saving the Frontline Education app to your Android home screen. Just to clarify, are you trying to save the app from the Play Store to your home screen, or are you trying to add a shortcut from the web version of Frontline Education accessed via your WebKit browser? Also, when you say "can't save," could you specify what exactly happens when you try? Any error messages or is the option not showing up?

Once I have a bit more detail, I can guide you better. Meanwhile, here's a general approach for Android 10 devices when icons won't add to the home screen:

1. Check Home Screen Settings
- Press and hold on an empty space on your home screen until a menu appears.
- Look for "Home Settings" or a similar option and tap it.
- Ensure that "Add app icons to home screen" is enabled. This setting controls whether newly installed apps or shortcuts are automatically added to the home screen.

2. Manually Add the App Icon
- Open your app drawer (where all installed apps are shown).
- Find the Frontline Education app.
- Press and hold its icon, then drag it to your home screen.

3. If Adding a Web Shortcut
- If you're in the WebKit browser and want to save a website shortcut:
- Tap the browser's menu button (usually three dots in the upper right).
- Select "Add to Home screen" or similar.
- Follow the prompts to add the shortcut.

4. Restart Device
- Sometimes a simple restart can reset home screen behavior.

5. Ensure You Have Enough Home Screen Space
- If there is no free grid space on your home panels, you can’t add more icons. Try removing an unused icon and then add the Frontline icon.

If you've tried these or the issue is different, please let me know what happened with each step or provide any specific errors. We can then dig deeper!

Are you satisfied with this initial guidance?
