Installing Navigatr as a Mobile App

Learn how to install Navigatr on your mobile device for quick access. Follow these steps to add it to your home screen on Android or iOS.

Written by Support Desk

Navigatr is a progressive web application, so you can add it to your home screen and use it like a regular app.

Note: Installing Navigatr to your home screen launches it like an app in its own window and uses your standard Navigatr login. It is not a native app: it needs an internet connection (no offline mode), does not send push notifications to your device (notifications appear in-app on the For You tab), and does not run in the background.


For Android (Samsung, Huawei, Sony, etc.)

If your browser shows its own prompt to install or add Navigatr to your home screen, you can use that for one-tap access. Otherwise, use your browser's menu (for example, Install app or Add to Home Screen).

  1. Open the Chrome web browser (other browsers may also work).

  2. Tap the three dots in the top-right corner.

  3. Select Install app or Add to Home Screen (it may be inside an Add to submenu).

  4. Confirm your selection.


For iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch)

Important note: Add to Home Screen on iOS only works in Safari. Other browsers like Chrome and Firefox do not support this feature.

  1. Open Safari.

  2. Go to navigatr.app (make sure you are not in private browsing mode).

  3. Tap Share at the bottom of the screen.

  4. In the pop-up menu, select Add to Home Screen.

  5. Confirm your selection.
