Home Assistant has [a companion app for both Android and iOS](/docs/ecosystem/ios/).
|
|
|
|
As an alternative to the iOS and Android companion apps, you can add the Home Assistant "web app" to your homescreen as if it was native (Home Assistant leverages the W3C [`manifest.json`](https://w3c.github.io/manifest/) support).

|
|
2. Navigate to your Home Assistant instance

|
|
4. Tap on Add to Homescreen
|
|
5. A dialog will popup; tap on Add
|
