Sheetgo provides a Progressive Web App (PWA) that works on Android and iOS. This guide will explain how to install it.
Additionally, it will provide information about the Android App for Sheetgo Forms, which is available but still in development.
What is a PWA?
A PWA is a web-based app that functions like a mobile app on your device. It provides a similar experience but does not require downloading from an app store. Once installed, you can access an app from your home screen with just one tap.
Benefits of using the Sheetgo PWA:
Cross-platform compatibility: It works on iOS, Android, and desktop devices.
Automatic updates: It updates itself in the background, so you always have the latest version.
No storage burden: It takes up little space on your device.
Install the Sheetgo PWA
On iOS devices (iPhone & iPad)
Follow these steps to install the Sheetgo PWA on your home screen.
Open Safari on your iOS device and navigate to Sheetgo.
Tap the Share button (the icon that looks like a square with an arrow pointing upwards).
Scroll down and select "Add to Home Screen".
Tap Add.
Note: For iOS devices, PWA installation is only supported on Safari.
On Android devices
Open Chrome on your Android device.
Go to sheetgo.com.
Open the settings and select Add Sheetgo to Home Screen.
Rename the PWA and tap Install.
The Sheetgo PWA will now be accessible from your home screen.
Note: On Android, the PWA can be installed from Firefox and Edge.
Using the Android App for Sheetgo Forms (beta)
Sheetgo also offers an Android app dedicated to managing forms. This app is currently in beta, meaning some of the newest features may not work as expected. However, you can use the app for basic form functions.
Install the Android App (beta)
Open the Google Play Store on your Android device.
Search for "Sheetgo" (beta).
Tap Install and wait for the app to download.
Once installed, open the app and log in with your Sheetgo account credentials.
Important: As this is still in beta, some features may not work as expected. We welcome any feedback on bugs or issues you encounter while using the native app.
Troubleshooting
These are some common solutions to issues you may encounter while installing or using the PWA or the Android app:
Ensure your device is running the latest version of its operating system.
For iOS users, remember that PWAs can only be installed via Safari.
Clear your browser cache if the PWA installation prompt does not appear.
For Android app issues, ensure the app is updated to the latest version available on the Google Play Store.
