Put it on your home screen
It opens full screen, without the browser's address bar, and stays signed in — so starting a report is one tap from the doorstep.
On an iPhone or iPad
Safari will not offer this on its own, which is why this page exists. Open the site in Safari — not Chrome, which cannot install it on iOS — then:
- Tap Share, the square with an arrow coming out of the top, in the bar at the bottom.
- Scroll the list and tap Add to Home Screen.
- Tap Add.
The icon appears with your other apps. Open it from there rather than from Safari, or you get the browser again.
On Android
Chrome usually offers it by itself — a banner, or Install app in the menu. If it has not:
- Tap the three dots at the top right.
- Tap Install app, or Add to Home screen.
- Tap Install.
If neither appears, the page has not finished loading yet. Give it a moment and look again.
You will sign in once more
The installed app keeps its own session, separate from the browser you installed it from, so the first thing it asks for is your password. After that it stays signed in between sessions and you should not see the login screen again in normal use.
It still needs a signal
Installing it makes it open faster and look like an app. It does not make it work offline: reports and photographs go to the server as you capture them, and a basement with no bars is still a basement with no bars.
