Looking for an app?

TrackBear is designed to work equally well in both desktop and mobile web browsers, meaning there's no need for a separate app. But if you still want a dedicated TrackBear app on your home screen, taskbar, or dock, there is a way... Find your device and browser below to learn how.

Why isn't there a TrackBear app in the app store?

In short, time and money. If I made dedicated apps for iOS and Android, I'd have to implement every feature three times and fix every bug three times, which means fewer features get added and fewer bugs get fixed. It also costs money to list an app in the iOS and Android app stores. I'd rather spend that money on the servers that power TrackBear and the coffee that powers my coding!

A note about installing TrackBear via Firefox

Unfortunately, Firefox on desktop doesn't support installing TrackBear natively. This is pretty frustrating, to be honest, because I love Firefox and it's the browser I use to help me make TrackBear.

There is a workaround using an extension, which I have put instructions for below, but it's cumbersome, a bit technical, and requires you to install additional software. Instead, I recommend following the instructions under Edge, Safari, or Chrome.

1. Install the Progressive Web Apps for Firefox extension.
2. Click the Install button that appears in the location bar.
3. Click Install web app.

Firefox (iOS)

1. Go to https://trackbear.app.
2. Click the Share button, then click Add to Home Screen.
3. Click Add.

Firefox (Android)

1. Go to https://trackbear.app.
2. Tap the three-dots menu, then tap Add to Home Screen.
3. Tap Add to Home Screen.

Safari (macOS)

1. Go to https://trackbear.app.
2. Click the Share button, then click Add to Dock.
3. Click Add.

Safari (iOS)

1. Go to https://trackbear.app.
2. Click the Share button, then click Add to Home Screen.
3. Click Add.
