# Install Turnero as a Progressive Web App (PWA)

> Install Turnero on your desktop, Android, or iOS device as a Progressive Web App for fast, app-like access with a single tap or click.

Turnero is a Progressive Web App (PWA), which means you can install it directly on your desktop, laptop, or mobile device. Once installed, it opens like a native app — no browser tab needed — and keeps you a single click away from your clinic schedule at all times.

## Why Install Turnero as a PWA

Installing Turnero as a PWA gives you a faster, more focused experience:

* Launch Turnero from your taskbar, dock, or home screen with a single click or tap.
* Opens in a standalone window without browser navigation bars.
* Works on any device: Windows, macOS, Android, iOS.
* Keeps you logged in between sessions.
* Enables desktop push notifications (see [Notifications](/features/notifications)).

  </Step>

  <Step title="Tap Add to Home Screen">
    Scroll down in the share sheet and tap **Add to Home Screen**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm">

<Note>
  The install prompt only appears once the app meets PWA criteria. If you don't see it, make sure you're using a supported browser (Chrome or Edge on desktop, Chrome on Android, Safari on iOS).
</Note>

<Tip>
  Clinic staff who use Turnero daily benefit most from the PWA installation — it saves time and keeps notifications active.
