How do I install DreamClass on a mobile device:

On an iPhone?

If you’re using an iPhone and want quick access to your DreamClass portal, you can install it just like an app — without going through the App Store. Follow the steps below to add DreamClass as a Progressive Web App (PWA) to your iPhone’s Home Screen.

1. Open Safari

To get started, make sure you’re using Safari. It’s the only browser on iOS that supports installing PWAs. Other browsers like Chrome or Firefox won’t offer the "Add to Home Screen" option.

2. Go to your DreamClass portal

Navigate to your school’s DreamClass portal.

For example:

https://yourportal.dreamclass.io

Just type your custom DreamClass URL into the Safari address bar and load the page.

3. Tap the Share icon

Go to the Share menu. At the bottom of your screen, you’ll see the Share icon. It looks like a square with an upward-pointing arrow. Tap that icon to open sharing options.

4. Select "Add to Home Screen"

Scroll through the menu until you find the Add to Home Screen option. Tap it to continue.

5. Name your app (optional)

A preview will pop up showing the app icon and its default name. If you'd like, you can rename it to something that’s easier to recognize — like "School Portal."

6. Tap "Add"

Now just tap Add in the upper-right corner. That’s it! The DreamClass app icon will be added to your Home Screen.

7. Launch DreamClass from your Home Screen

Look for the new icon on your Home Screen. Tap it to open DreamClass. It’ll open in full-screen mode, just like a native app.

If something doesn’t seem to work, or you can’t find the "Add to Home Screen" option,it could be named differently on your version of iOS. Try searching for:"Add to Home Screen on [your-iPhone-version]"

On Android?

Want fast access to DreamClass on your Android phone or tablet? You can install it straight from your browser in just a few taps. Here’s how.

1. Open your preferred browser

Use a browser that supports Progressive Web Apps (PWAs). We recommend Google Chrome, but Firefox, Samsung Internet, or Microsoft Edge work too.

2. Visit your DreamClass portal

In the browser, enter your school’s custom DreamClass URL.

Info

For example:

https://yourportal.dreamclass.io

Once the page loads fully, you’re ready for the next step.

3. Open the browser menu

Look for the Menu icon (usually three vertical dots in the top-right corner of the screen) and tap it to open the browser’s options.

4. Tap "Install app" or "Add to Home Screen"

Depending on the browser you’re using, you’ll see either Install app or Add to Home Screen in the menu. Tap that option.

5. Confirm installation

A popup will appear asking you to confirm. Tap Install or Add, and your device will do the rest.

6. Find your new app icon

Once installed, you’ll see a DreamClass icon on your Home Screen or in your App Drawer, depending on your settings.

7. Open the app

Tap the icon to launch DreamClass. It opens in its own window, just like a regular app.

If you’re not seeing the install option, try refreshing the page or checking that you’re using a supported browser.
