Get fitDEGREE on Your Phone Without Downloading an App

So... you want to access fitDEGREE without downloading it from an app store? Maybe you’re low on storage or just prefer not to install another app. No problem!

fitDEGREE is a Progressive Web App (PWA), meaning all you need is a web browser and an internet connection to access it just like an app.

You could simply type app.fitdegree.com into your browser whenever you want to use fitDEGREE, but for easier access, this guide will show you how to save fitDEGREE to your home screen for a one-click experience—just like an app.

How to Save fitDEGREE to Your iPhone’s Home Screen

Using Safari

1. Open Safari on your iPhone.
2. Go to app.fitdegree.com.
3. Tap the Share Icon (a box with an arrow pointing up, located at the bottom center).
4. Scroll down and tap "Add to Home Screen".
5. Name your shortcut (e.g., “fitDEGREE”) and tap "Add".
6. The fitDEGREE icon will now appear on your home screen!

Using Google Chrome

Since Chrome does not have a built-in "Add to Home Screen" function for iOS, you'll need to create a shortcut using the Shortcuts app.

1. Open the Shortcuts app on your iPhone.
2. Tap the "+" icon in the top right corner.
3. Tap "+ Add Action".
4. Search for Google Chrome and select "Open URLs in Chrome".
5. In the URL field, type app.fitdegree.com.
6. Tap the three dots in the top right corner.
7. Create a shortcut name (e.g., "fitDEGREE") and customize the icon if desired.
8. Tap "Add to Home Screen".
9. Your shortcut will now appear on your home screen!

Things to Note

• Using the web version instead of downloading the app means you will not receive push notifications.
• The experience remains the same as the mobile app, but virtual content will be fully accessible on iOS through the PWA version.
