Applications

An application in weballoon is a saved shortcut to a website: a name, URL, icon, and options (workspace, notifications, proxy, protection, and so on).

Adding an app from a URL

The new app is tied to the workspace you are viewing when you add it: either the default view (no workspace) or the named workspace selected in the workspace picker.

  • Open My Apps.
  • Click Add Application.
  • Enter Application Name and Application URL.
  • If you omit http or https, weballoon adds https:// automatically.
  • Click Save Changes.

Adding from the catalog

Catalog entries install with the name, URL, and icon from the catalog.

  • Open Catalog.
  • Use Search and category pills (All or a category name).
  • Click a tile. If the app is not already in the current workspace, you see Get App; after install the tile shows In Workspace.

Opening and closing apps

Navigation inside the app uses the title bar Back, Home (loads the app’s saved home URL), Forward, and Reload.

  • Open: Click the app in the dock or on the My Apps grid.
  • Close app view: In the title bar, use Close app (X). This closes the embedded session view for that app; it does not delete the app from your list.

Reordering apps

In the dock, drag one app icon onto another to swap order. The same order logic applies to the grid for the current workspace.

Moving or removing apps

Dock: Right-click an app icon. You can move it to Default View or any workspace, or Remove App (with confirmation).

My Apps grid: Right-click a tile for the same move/remove options.

You cannot add the same URL twice in the same workspace; duplicate workspace options appear disabled with a “duplicated” note.

Plan limits (Free)

On the Free plan, weballoon allows up to 10 applications total and 2 named workspaces (see Plans & billing). If you reach the app limit, Add Application is disabled and a banner offers to open Plans to upgrade.

Favicons

Custom URL apps get an icon from a standard favicon service based on the site’s domain. Catalog apps use the catalog’s icon.
