# Install Zendo as an app on your phone or computer

Zendo works in the browser, and it can also be installed like an app, on a phone, a tablet or a computer. It then opens in its own window, without the browser's address bar and tabs, and has its own icon on the home screen, in the dock or in the Start menu. This works for your team and for your clients alike, and there is nothing to download from an app store.

The installed app carries your brand, not Zendo's: it is named after your workspace and uses the **App icon** from **Settings › Brand › Identity**. So when a client installs your portal, your logo is the icon on their phone.

## On an iPhone or iPad

1. Open your workspace address in **Safari**, for example `https://your-workspace.getzendo.io`, and sign in.
2. Tap the **Share** button.
3. Tap **Add to Home Screen**. You may need to scroll down the list to find it.
4. Check the name and tap **Add**.

The app now has its own icon on the home screen.

## On an Android phone or tablet

1. Open your workspace address in **Chrome** and sign in.
2. Tap the **⋮** menu.
3. Tap **Add to Home screen** or **Install app**, and confirm.

## On a computer, in Chrome or Edge

1. Open your workspace address and sign in.
2. Select the install icon at the right end of the address bar. If you do not see it, open the browser's menu: in Chrome, **⋮ › Cast, save and share › Install page as app**; in Edge, **… › Apps › Install this site as an app**.
3. Confirm with **Install**.

The app opens in its own window. You can pin it to the taskbar or the dock and open it like any other program.

## On a Mac, in Safari

1. Open your workspace address in Safari and sign in.
2. In the menu bar, choose **File › Add to Dock**.
3. Check the name and select **Add**.

## Things to know

- **Sign in once.** The app uses the same account as the browser. If you are asked to sign in, use the same email address and password.
- **Use your workspace address.** If you use your own domain, install the app from that address. See [Use your own domain](https://help.getzendo.io/en/article/use-your-own-domain-1ka8al9/).
- **Several workspaces.** If you work in more than one Zendo workspace, or are a client of more than one business, install each one separately. Each gets its own icon and name.
- **Notifications.** To get notifications from the app, open your account settings in the app, select **Enable** under **Browser notifications** and allow them. See [Set up your own account](https://help.getzendo.io/en/article/set-up-your-own-account-wf7m93/).
- **Uninstall** the app the way you remove any other app: press and hold the icon on a phone, or remove it from the browser's list of apps on a computer.

## Give your clients a polished icon

Before you tell clients they can install the portal, upload an **App icon** on **Settings › Brand › Identity**. A square image works best. Without one, Zendo uses your favicon, which is often too small to look sharp on a home screen. See [Put your logo, favicon and app icon in place](https://help.getzendo.io/en/article/put-your-logo-favicon-and-app-icon-in-place-1sy8a1l/).
