Put AnyRequests on your phone's home screen

Add AnyRequests to your home screen so it opens like an app, and so notifications can work on an iPhone or iPad.

AnyRequests runs in the browser, so there is nothing to download from an app store. Adding it to your home screen gives you an icon that opens it quickly. On an iPhone or iPad it is also needed before notifications can work.

On an iPhone or iPad

Open AnyRequests in your browser, not inside another app. Then:

  1. In Safari on an iPhone, tap the Share button in the bottom toolbar. On an iPad, it is in the top toolbar.
  2. Tap Add to Home Screen.

In other iPhone browsers the first step is different:

  • Chrome: tap the Share button in the address bar.
  • Firefox: open the page menu beside the address bar, then tap Share.
  • Edge: open the Edge menu in the bottom toolbar, then tap Share.

You will see: an AnyRequests icon on your home screen.

On Android

  1. Open AnyRequests in your browser.
  2. When the prompt Keep AnyRequests ready appears, tap Add to home screen.

If you dismiss the prompt with the cross, it stays away for 30 days. The prompt only appears when your browser offers it.

If you are inside another app

Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, Twitter, LinkedIn and TikTok open links in their own built-in browser, which cannot add AnyRequests to your home screen. The prompt then says Open AnyRequests in your browser. Press Copy link, or use the app's menu to open the page in your browser, and add it from there.

Good to know

  • The prompt is not shown on a desktop computer, or once AnyRequests is already installed.
  • The prompt appears on the AnyRequests home page, the log in and sign up pages, and your dashboard. It never appears on your audience page.
  • Your audience does not need to install anything.
  • Notifications on an iPhone or iPad need AnyRequests added to the home screen first. See notifications not arriving.
