Install Stoprover on your phone
Add Stoprover to your home screen and use it like a native app. No app store, no download — just tap and go.
Open Stoprover in Safari
On your iPhone, open Safari and go to stoprover.com. This only works in Safari, not Chrome or other browsers.
Tap the Share button
Look for the Share icon — a square with an arrow pointing up — at the bottom of the Safari screen.
Choose "Add to Home Screen"
Scroll the share menu until you see "Add to Home Screen" and tap it. If you don't see it, tap Edit Actions and add it.
Tap "Add"
Confirm the name (Stoprover) and tap Add in the top right. The Stoprover icon appears on your home screen. Tap it any time to launch — no browser bar, opens instantly.
Tip: If you're reading this on your computer, open stoprover.com/install on your iPhone to follow along.
One tap — Chrome will handle the rest.

Tap the menu (⋮)
Tap the three-dot menu in the top-right corner of Chrome.

Tap Install. The Stoprover icon appears on your home screen and in your app drawer. Opens like a real app, no browser chrome.
Open Stoprover in Chrome or Edge
Visit stoprover.com in Chrome, Edge, or Brave.
Click the install icon

Click Install. Stoprover gets its own window and shows up in your Applications / Start Menu like any other app.

Common questions
Install FAQ
Is this the same as the App Store version?
For now, yes — Stoprover isn't in the App Store or Google Play yet. Adding it to your home screen gives you the closest experience to a native app, and it's what we recommend today. When the native apps launch, we'll let you know.
Does it work offline?
Basic navigation works after the first load, and your saved routes stay available. Building new routes and searching for stops requires a connection.
How much storage does it use?
Under 5 MB — a fraction of a typical app. No downloads or updates required.
Can I uninstall it?
Yes. On iPhone, long-press the icon and tap Remove App → Delete Bookmark. On Android, long-press the icon and drag to Uninstall.
Why doesn't it work in Chrome on iPhone?
Apple only lets Safari add web apps to the iPhone home screen. If you use Chrome, open the link in Safari first, then follow the steps above.
Will I get notifications?
On Android and desktop, yes — Stoprover supports web push notifications. On iPhone (iOS 16.4+), notifications work after you add Stoprover to your home screen and open it from there.
