Method 1: Using Safari on iPhone (Recommended)

This method allows you to open OurMind like a Progressive Web App (PWA) directly from your home screen.

Steps:

  1. Open Safari on your iPhone.

  2. Go to app.ourmind.ai.

  3. Tap the Share button (square with an upward arrow) at the bottom of the screen.

  4. Scroll down and tap "Add to Home Screen".

  5. Rename it if desired, then tap "Add".

  6. You’ll now see an OurMind icon on your home screen! Tap it anytime to access the app.

Method 2: Using Chrome on iPhone (Workaround)

Since Chrome does not support direct "Add to Home Screen" functionality on iOS, you can create a shortcut using the Shortcuts app.

Steps:

  1. Open the Shortcuts app on your iPhone.

  2. Tap the + (plus icon) in the top right.

  3. Tap "Add Action".

  4. Search for "Open URLs" and select it.

  5. In the URL field, enter: **https://app.ourmind.ai/**

  6. Tap the three dots (•••) in the top-right corner.

  7. Tap "Add to Home Screen".

  8. Rename it to "OurMind" and choose an icon if needed.

  9. Tap "Add".

  10. The shortcut will now open OurMind directly in Chrome.

Method 3: Using Chrome on Android (Recommended)

On Android, Chrome fully supports adding websites as Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) for a native-like experience.

Steps:

  1. Open Chrome on your Android device.

  2. Go to app.ourmind.ai.

  3. Tap the three-dot menu in the top-right corner.

  4. Select "Add to Home screen".

  5. Rename it if desired, then tap "Add".

  6. Confirm by selecting "Add automatically" or manually placing it on your home screen.

  7. The OurMind icon will now function like an app, opening in its own window.

Which Method Should You Use?

  • If you want a full-screen, app-like experience, use Safari on iPhone or Chrome on Android.

  • If you prefer opening in Chrome on iPhone, use the Shortcuts workaround.

Now, you have quick access to OurMind from your home screen—just like an app! 🚀
