Install Guildhall on Your Phone (PWA)
Installing the Guildhall mobile PWA gives you app-like access from your home screen without going through an app store flow.
Guildhall also provides a dedicated mobile companion site at mobile.guildhall.events. This is a different website from the main app domain and is optimized specifically for phone-first use.
Why install the mobile PWA
- Faster one-tap access from your phone home screen.
- Cleaner full-screen experience compared with browser tabs.
- Better day-to-day event workflow for hosts and attendees.
- Mobile-friendly notifications workflow for reminders and updates.
Main site vs mobile site
You can use either, but if you want the most phone-optimized install flow, start from the mobile companion site.
What you can do from mobile
- View upcoming events and join/leave quickly.
- Open event details, schedules, and updates on the go.
- Check notifications and recent activity.
- Access your account and store workflows from a mobile-friendly UI.
Install on iOS (iPhone/iPad)
Use Safari for best results.
- Open mobile.guildhall.events in Safari (recommended).
- Tap the Share button.
- Tap Add to Home Screen.
- Name it (or keep default), then tap Add.
- Launch Guildhall from your home screen icon.
Install on Android
Use Chrome (or another browser with install support).
- Open mobile.guildhall.events in your mobile browser (recommended).
- Tap the browser menu.
- Tap Install app or Add to Home screen.
- Confirm install.
- Open Guildhall from your app drawer/home screen.
If you see an in-app install prompt, you can use that directly.
Notifications on your phone
To receive notification alerts reliably:
- Make sure you are signed in to Guildhall.
- Allow notification permission when prompted.
- Ensure browser/app notifications are enabled in OS settings.
- Disable Focus/Do Not Disturb rules if you expect real-time alerts.
You can always review missed items in Notifications.
Troubleshooting
- No install option on iOS: use Safari, not an in-app browser.
- No install option on Android: update browser and revisit the site.
- Not getting alerts: re-check notification permissions at browser and OS levels.
- Opened as a tab instead of app: relaunch from the home screen icon.
Recommended onboarding flow for stores and hosts
- Install PWA first.
- Verify timezone in Profile.
- Open My Events and Notifications.
- If you run a store, configure My Store and invite tools.
