Bubsby works in the browser, but installing it on your phone makes it feel like a real app — with a home-screen icon, full-screen view, and proper notifications.
What this does
- Adds a Bubsby icon to your home screen.
- Removes the browser bar so it feels like a native app.
- Lets push notifications work reliably.
When to use this
- You're going to use Bubsby every day (most parents do).
- You want reminders to actually arrive on your phone.
How it works
On Android or in Chrome / Edge on a laptop
- Look for the install banner at the bottom of the screen.
- Tap Install Now.
- Bubsby is added to your home screen or app launcher.
On iPhone or iPad (Safari)
- Tap the Share button at the bottom of the screen.
- Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen.
- Tap Add.
Important things to know
- The install prompt appears once. If you dismiss it, you can still install from your browser menu.
- iOS doesn't have a one-tap installer — the Share menu is the only way.
- Notifications work best from the installed version on iOS.
Common questions
- Do I lose anything if I don't install? No, but notifications can be less reliable in a regular browser tab.
- Can I uninstall later? Yes, like any other app — long-press the icon and remove it.
