You can use MEW web as a Progressive Web App (PWA) or Chrome App, allowing for secure access directly from a shortcut on your desktop computer. Using a Chrome App installed on your computer reduces the risk of accessing a fake website or a compromised DNS, adding to the security of interacting with crypto services online.

To make use of this feature, you first need to be on a supported browser like Chrome and Brave.

Head to MyEtherWallet, click on the hamburger menu (3 vertical dots) in the upper right corner, and select 'Install MEW'.

This will add a MEW shortcut to your computer, in your Applications/Chrome apps folder, making it available for easy access without going through a browser.
