Add to home screen

Install BGI like an app: it opens full screen from its own icon and keeps working offline.

Android (Chrome)

1. Tap Install as app below, if shown.
2. Otherwise open the ⋮ menu and choose Install app (or Add to Home screen).
3. Confirm. Long-press the icon for shortcuts to Games, Import and Add.

iPhone / iPad (Safari)

1. Open BGI in Safari (from iOS 16.4 Chrome and Edge work too).
2. Tap Share (the square with the arrow).
3. Choose Add to Home Screen, keep the name “BGI” and tap Add.

Offline use and the install button need an https:// address. To get a new icon after an update, remove BGI from the home screen and add it again.

Third-party services

External services BGI sends requests to.

Bundled libraries

Served from this server; they make no external requests.

Stored data

Where BGI keeps data. Private records are only visible to you; shared records are visible to every user of this instance.

Privacy, retention and export

Operator not configured

Records remain until you remove them or delete your account. Sold/traded games remain archived until account deletion. Shared confirmations and published designs may remain under deployment policy; ask the operator.

Operator backups and logs have deployment-specific retention. Account deletion does not remove old backups immediately. Ask the operator for deletion and expiry details.

Download personal archive on Import: manual and archived copies, plays, players, locations, personal images, profile and other owned records. Authentication secrets are excluded. Inventory and cover files can be restored; social/integration records are exported for inspection. An operator backup contains other accounts, infrastructure and secrets and is a separate operation.

Provider use, agreements, region and privacy notices depend on operator configuration. The repository does not establish deployment-specific legal arrangements.
