Use ForestrPro on a phone without the app

On an iPhone, or any phone without the ForestrPro app: add the dashboard to your home screen and plant, record, work on tasks and share your location from the browser.

Your work in ForestrPro (planting, tasks, records, GPS tracks and location sharing) can be done in the web dashboard too, on any phone, tablet or computer. On a phone, add it to your home screen so it opens from an icon like an app.

iPhone and iPad
Open forestrpro.com/dashboard in Safari and sign in. Tap the Share button (the square with an arrow), then Add to Home Screen, then Add.
Android
Open the dashboard in Chrome and choose Add to home screen on Home (or, in the browser menu, Install app or Add to Home screen).
Stay signed in
Tick Keep me signed in on this device when you sign in, so the icon opens straight into your work. Don't tick it on a shared computer.

Some things work differently in a browser. GPS only works while the page is open and the screen is on (ForestrPro keeps the screen on while you record or plant). If the phone locks, a track continues as a new part when you come back. Offline maps (PDF maps prepared for offline use) are in the app only; the dashboard needs a signal for the base map. Changes you make without a signal are kept on the phone and sent when it's back.
