# Add Cassidy to your phone's home screen

> Add Cassidy to your iPhone or Android home screen so Chat opens like an app. Chat with Agents, continue conversations, and run Workflows from your phone.

You can chat with your [Agents](/agents/overview) from your phone. Add Cassidy to your home screen so it opens like an app — with its own icon, and without the browser address bar.

On your phone, Cassidy Chat is the full experience: start and continue conversations, switch Agents, attach files, use voice, and run [Workflows](/workflows/overview). Use a desktop browser to build Agents, edit Workflows, and manage your [Knowledge Base](/knowledge-base/overview).

## Add to your home screen

Sign in at [app.cassidy.ai](https://app.cassidy.ai) on your phone first, then follow the steps for your device.

**iPhone**

Use **Safari**. Other iPhone browsers may not add Cassidy as an app.

**1. Open Cassidy in Safari**

Open **Safari** and go to [app.cassidy.ai](https://app.cassidy.ai). Sign in if you aren't already.

**2. Open the share sheet**

Tap the **•••** button in the Safari toolbar, then tap **Share**.

If you already see a **Share** button — a square with an arrow pointing up — tap that instead.

**3. Choose Add to Home Screen**

The share sheet opens with apps like Messages and Mail. Scroll down and tap **Add to Home Screen**.

If you don't see that option, scroll to the bottom, tap **Edit Actions**, and add **Add to Home Screen**.

**4. Add Cassidy**

Confirm the name **Cassidy**. If you see **Open as Web App**, leave it turned on so Cassidy opens like an app instead of a Safari tab.

Tap **Add**. The Cassidy icon appears on your home screen.

**5. Open Cassidy from your home screen**

Tap the Cassidy icon. Chat opens without the Safari address bar.

> [!TIP]
>
> Cassidy is on your home screen and opens like an app.

> [!TIP]
>
> These steps also work on iPad. Add Cassidy from Safari, then tap the icon
> on your Home Screen or in the Dock.

**Android**

Use **Chrome**. After you tap **Install and create shortcut**, Chrome may ask whether
to **Install** Cassidy or **Create shortcut**. Choose **Install**.

**1. Open Cassidy in Chrome**

Open **Chrome** and go to [app.cassidy.ai](https://app.cassidy.ai). Sign in if you aren't already, then tap the **three-dot** menu in the top-right corner of Chrome.

**2. Tap Install and create shortcut**

Tap **Install and create shortcut**. Some phones show **Add to Home screen** or **Install app** in this menu instead. If you see **Install app**, tap that, then skip the next step.

![Chrome menu on Android with Install and create shortcut highlighted](https://mintcdn.com/cassidy/sybMcDr2KHjhmdan/images/extensions/android-chrome-menu.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=sybMcDr2KHjhmdan\&q=85\&s=32d72fd911b24f27e63157067a0583e9)

**3. Choose Install**

If Chrome asks how to add Cassidy, tap **Install**. Don't choose
**Create shortcut** — shortcuts open in Chrome with the address bar.

![Chrome Install and create shortcut sheet with Install highlighted above Create shortcut](https://mintcdn.com/cassidy/sybMcDr2KHjhmdan/images/extensions/android-install-sheet.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=sybMcDr2KHjhmdan\&q=85\&s=645f8d279ab87182b78618b64c8302b5)

**4. Confirm**

Review the Cassidy name and icon, then tap **Install**.

**5. Open Cassidy from your home screen**

Tap the Cassidy icon on your home screen or in your app drawer. Chat opens without the Chrome address bar.

> [!TIP]

> Cassidy is installed and opens like an app.

> [!TIP]
>
> Firefox and Samsung Internet can also add Cassidy to your home screen from
> their menus. Look for **Install** or **Add page to Home screen**.

## Use Cassidy on your phone

After you add Cassidy, tap the icon anytime to open Chat. If you're asked to sign in, use the same account you use on desktop.

You can:

* Start a new chat with the **+** button
* Open past chats from the **menu** in the top-left corner
* Switch [Agents](/agents/overview)
* Send messages, attach files, and use voice
* Run a [Workflow](/workflows/overview) from Chat
* Add items from your [Knowledge Base](/knowledge-base/overview) to a message
* Share a chat from the header

For a full walkthrough of Chat, see [Chat with an Agent](/guides/chatting-with-an-agent).

## Troubleshooting

> **I don't see Add to Home Screen on iPhone**
>
> Make sure you're in **Safari**, not Chrome or an in-app browser (for
> example, a link opened from Slack or Gmail). Open [app.cassidy.ai](https://app.cassidy.ai)
> in Safari itself.
>
> Also avoid **Private Browsing**. Close the private tab, open a regular Safari
> tab, and try again.
>
> If the action still doesn't appear, open the share sheet, scroll to the
> bottom, tap **Edit Actions**, and add **Add to Home Screen**.

> **Cassidy opens in the browser instead of like an app**
>
> On iPhone, delete the home screen icon, add Cassidy again, and leave **Open
> as Web App** turned on.
>
> On Android, choose **Install** instead of **Create shortcut** if Chrome
> asks.

> **I'm asked to sign in every time**
>
> Sign in at [app.cassidy.ai](https://app.cassidy.ai) in a regular browser tab
> first, then add Cassidy to your home screen again. Private or incognito
> tabs won't keep you signed in.
