Installing Tavina on Your Devices

You can use Tavina right in your browser — but installing it as an app makes it even better. It opens faster, feels more like a native app, and lives on your home screen.

Why Install?

  • Quick access — tap the icon like any other app, no browser needed.
  • Full screen — no browser bar taking up space.
  • Offline support — the app loads even without internet (you’ll still need a connection to chat).
  • Notifications — get reminders and updates directly on your device.

1. Open Safari and go to app.tavina.ai.
2. Tap the Share button (the square with an arrow pointing up, at the bottom of the screen).
3. Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen.
4. You can rename it if you’d like, then tap Add.
5. The Tavina icon now appears on your home screen.

How to Check If It’s Installed

  • Phone: Look for the Tavina icon on your home screen or in your app drawer.
  • Computer: Check your installed apps list, or look for Tavina in your taskbar or dock.
  • Still not sure? Open your browser’s menu and look for “installed apps” or “installed sites.”

Uninstalling

iPhone

  • Press and hold the Tavina icon on your home screen.
  • Tap Remove App.
