INSTALL

Add Tailrep to your home screen

Tailrep runs in the browser as a PWA. Add it to your home screen and it opens full screen, with no address bar, exactly like an installed app. There is nothing to download from a store.

What changes when you add it

  • One tap from the home screen icon
  • No address bar or tabs — the whole screen is the log, which helps at the gym
  • Pages you've already opened still render on a flaky connection (saving and syncing still need one)
  • It barely uses storage, and your log works exactly as before

On iPhone and iPad

  1. 1Open Tailrep in Safari
  2. 2Tap the share button (the square with an arrow) at the bottom, or the top on iPad
  3. 3Scroll down the menu and tap "Add to Home Screen"
  4. 4Tap "Add" in the top right and the icon appears on your home screen

On iOS, adding to the home screen is handled by Safari. If you're in another browser, reopen the page in Safari first.

On Android

  1. 1Open Tailrep in Chrome
  2. 2Tap the ⋮ menu in the top right
  3. 3Tap "Install app" or "Add to Home screen"
  4. 4Confirm with "Install"

Chrome may also show a prompt at the bottom of the screen — you can install straight from there.

On desktop

  1. 1Open Tailrep in Chrome or Edge
  2. 2Click the install icon at the right end of the address bar
  3. 3Click "Install" and it opens in its own window from then on

If you don't see the icon, look under the browser menu — "Save and share" or "Apps".
