Discrete-time of Markov chains, starting now referred to as Markov chains, have been widely used by previous researchers in predicting the phenomenon. The predictions were made by manual calculations and using separate software, including Maple, Matlab, and Microsoft Excel. The analysis takes a relatively long time, especially in calculating the number of transitions from each state. This research built an integrated R script for the Markov chain based on the web application RShiny to quickly, easily, and accurately predict a phenomenon. The Markov chain integrated R script is built via command-command to predict the day-n distribution with the n-step distribution and long-term probability using a stationary distribution. The RShiny web application built is limited to state two and three. The integrated web application RShiny for the Markov chain is used to predict the daily cases of COVID-19 in West Sumatra. Based on the analysis carried out in predicting the daily cases of COVID-19 in West Sumatra from March 26, 2020, to October 20, 2020, for the next three days and in the long term, the results show that there is a 51.2% probability of an increase in COVID-19 cases, a 43% probability that cases will decrease, and 5.8% chance of stagnant cases
