One of the most common questions new ApoClock users ask is: "Is there an app?" The answer is yes — but you won't find it in the App Store or Google Play. ApoClock is a Progressive Web App (PWA), which means it installs directly from your browser onto any device, takes seconds to set up, and works just like a native app.

What is a PWA?

A Progressive Web App is a website that behaves like a native application. It can be added to your home screen, launched from an icon, run in its own window (no browser chrome), and even work offline. PWAs don't need an App Store listing, don't require a download, and update automatically.

For alliance tools like ApoClock — where you want to check member times from your phone during a raid — a PWA is actually better than a native app. It's always up to date, works on every platform, and doesn't cost you App Store storage.

Install on iOS (Safari)

  1. Open https://app.apoclock.com in Safari on your iPhone or iPad.
  2. Tap the Share button (the box with an arrow at the bottom of the screen).
  3. Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen.
  4. Give it a name (or keep "ApoClock") and tap Add.

ApoClock now appears on your home screen as an icon, just like any other app. Tap it to launch in full-screen mode.

Note: iOS requires Safari for PWA installation. Chrome on iOS will not show the Add to Home Screen option via this method.

Install on Android (Chrome)

  1. Open https://app.apoclock.com in Chrome on your Android device.
  2. Chrome will automatically show an "Add ApoClock to Home screen" banner at the bottom of the screen.
  3. Tap Install (or Add).

If the banner doesn't appear:

Install on Desktop (Chrome or Edge)

  1. Open https://app.apoclock.com in Chrome or Edge on your computer.
  2. Look for the install icon in the address bar — a small computer screen with a down arrow (Chrome) or a plus icon (Edge).
  3. Click it and select Install.

ApoClock opens in its own app window, separate from your browser. You can pin it to your taskbar or dock for one-click access. At a glance, here's where to look on each platform:

iOS / Safari      →  Share  →  Add to Home Screen
Android / Chrome  →  Install banner  (or  ⋮  →  Add to Home screen)
Chrome (desktop)  →  Address bar  →  ⊕ install icon  →  Install
Edge (desktop)    →  Address bar  →  + install icon  →  Install
Tip: Because every install points at the same https://app.apoclock.com address, the fastest way to set it up on a new device is to open that link directly — no app store search required.

Works offline

Once installed, ApoClock caches your workspace data locally. If you lose internet connection during a raid or event, your member dashboard, clocks, and event schedule remain fully accessible. Changes sync back to the server when you reconnect.

This is critical for alliance leaders who need to check member availability regardless of connection quality. If you're new to the dashboard, the member dashboard walkthrough shows exactly what stays available offline.

One app, every device

Because ApoClock is a PWA, the same account works seamlessly across all your devices. Install it on your phone for quick checks during gameplay, on your PC for event planning, and on your tablet for dashboard viewing on a larger screen.

Your workspace — members, events, settings, Discord integration — syncs automatically across all installations.

No maintenance required

PWAs update in the background. When the ApoClock team ships new features or bug fixes, your installed app updates automatically the next time you open it. No "Update available" prompts, no App Store review delays.
