Add FamilyBeats to your Home Screen
Get a FamilyBeats icon on your phone that opens straight to Today. No app store needed.
iPhone or iPad (Safari)
- Open FamilyBeats in Safari and log in.
- Tap the Share button (the square with an arrow pointing up). If you don't see it, tap the ⋯ button next to the address first.
- Tap “Add to Home Screen”. If it isn't listed, scroll down or tap “View More”.
- If you see “Open as Web App”, leave it on. Tap “Add”.
- Open FamilyBeats from the new icon on your Home Screen.
The Home Screen app keeps its own sign-in, separate from Safari, so you may need to log in once more the first time you open it. Other browsers on iPhone, like Chrome, also offer “Add to Home Screen” in their Share menu.
Android (Chrome)
- Open FamilyBeats in Chrome and log in.
- Tap the menu (⋮) in the top-right corner.
- Tap “Add to Home screen” or “Install app”.
- Tap “Install” (or “Add”) to confirm.
- Open FamilyBeats from the new icon on your Home Screen.
Good to know
- Adding FamilyBeats to your Home Screen is optional. Everything works the same in your browser.
- Got an invite link? Open it and finish joining first, then add FamilyBeats to your Home Screen.
- FamilyBeats needs an internet connection. If you're offline, you'll see a page asking you to try again.
