There isn't a simple way to install any Bookmarklet on the smartphone or tablet. Several people have come up with workarounds and there is a way to do it following these steps.
- Make sure you have Javascript set to "On" in your phone's Settings.
- Make sure you have your Bookmarks bar visible in your browser (again done in Settings).
- Add this page as a Bookmark (you doing this just to add a new page - it could be any EYB page).
- Select and copy the Javascript below to your clipboard.
- Go to your Bookmarks and edit the new Bookmark. Edit the name to "Add to EYB Recipes" and paste the Javascript in the field for the URL. Be aware that Android seems to change "javascript" at the front of the URL to https:// so you need to edit that to make it the same as below.
- Done.
Copy everything below:
javascript:(function()%20{%20window.open('https://www.eatyourbooks.com/bookshelf/add-online-recipe?url='+encodeURIComponent(window.location.href),'_blank','location=no,links=no,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,status=no,menubar=no,width=1040,height=800');%20})();
