# Adding eventmate to Your Mobile Home Screen

For convenient, one-tap access to your event page, you can add eventmate directly to your smartphone’s home screen. Follow the steps below based on your device:

### iPhone (Safari)

**Open Safari**

Go to the eventmate page you’d like to save, e.g., `app.eventmate.ca/nightofgiving`.

**Tap the Share Icon**

It’s located at the bottom center of the Safari task bar.

**Select “Add to Home Screen”**

Assign a custom name (such as your event’s title) if you prefer.

**Tap “Add”**

The page icon will appear on your home screen, just like a regular app.

### Android (Chrome)

**Open Chrome**

Navigate to the eventmate page you want to save, e.g., `app.eventmate.ca/nightofgiving`.

**Tap the More Options (⋮) Icon**

It’s typically found at the top-right corner of Chrome.

**Choose “Add to Home Screen”**

You’ll see two ways to add the page.

* **Install as an app:**
  * Creates an “app-like” icon on your home screen.
  * Faster loading but limited to one event at a time, and you **cannot** rename it (it’ll default to “eventmate” or your event name as recognized by the browser).
* **Create a shortcut:**
  * Allows you to set multiple shortcuts for various events.
  * You can rename each shortcut to something personalized (e.g., “Giving Back Gala”).
