Adding UKC to your mobile home screen

[Pegasus]

Click on menu bars and you'll see 'install app' - I clicked on this and now have UKC on my home screen, remarkably simple

There isn't an app as such, however you can add ukcaving to your home screen on your mobile. Mine is a samsung.


Here is a screen shot of my homescreen to show what it looks like.

On an iPhone, click the 'share' icon in the centre of the bottom of the screen (a box with an arrow pointing upwards) and then click 'Add to Home Screen'.

Neat!

That is awesome! Testing photo use within the app

Really neat and seemingly easy!
Thanks again.

App installed on my phone. If a dinosaur like me can do it, it really is easy. Nice work everyone, thanks.

What app are you talking about?

What app are you talking about?

Me neither. No idea what app and nothing showing on Apple Store.

Hi, apologies for the confusion. There isn't an app as such, however you can add ukcaving to your home screen on your mobile. Mine is a samsung.

I'm struggling to do remind myself how I did it, as I've added it now - also, I am sh**e at IT.

Can anyone help please?

Hi, apologies for the confusion

No confusion caused if people were able to read the post itself

OK, so after asking cavers (for a Hidden Earth competition) to show they have UKC added to their mobile home screen, turns out iphones do it differently.

I don't own one so can't post a screenshot - any kind soul that can please help, thanks.

Google ukcaving, single the webpage, open it then....

At the bottom of an iPhone screen is a square with an arrow in it pointing upwards. Press that - more features pop up, scroll through them until you find 'add to home screen', follow directions.

Feel free to improve on this post and do let me know of any successes. I'll add to the original post once I have the best description.

Thanks, Pegasus

Hi all, we will be running a bumper competition at Hidden Earth this year - over £2k worth of prizes up for grabs!

You will need one of the FREE raffle tickets to take part.

To qualify for a ticket:

1. Come visit the UKC stand - will be lovely to meet you
2. Be a registered user on UKC (looking at you Lurkers )
3. Add UKC to your home screen on your phone - see above posts to find out how.

If you can't make Hidden Earth, do consider adding UKC to your home screen anyway - thank you!

I see no install app button. Am I missing something?

Hija, best to scroll all the posts above. Hopefully that will explain all. It's not an app but you can add UKC.
if you are still stuck, let me know. I will edit first post later when on laptop

On my phone, the menu panel is taller than the screen. Since the install button is at the bottom, it's off the screen and you can't see it. You have to drag the menu panel up the screen, then it all becomes obvious.
