Install Plifto on your phone

Plifto installs as an app — there is no app store to visit. Once installed it opens full-screen like any app, and on iPhone it is the only way to receive notifications.

iPhone & iPad (Safari)

1. Tap the Share button — the square with an arrow pointing up. It is in Safari's toolbar (along the bottom on iPhone, along the top on iPad).
2. Scroll down the list and tap Add to Home Screen.
3. Tap Add in the top-right corner. The Plifto icon appears on your home screen.
4. Open Plifto from that home-screen icon from now on — notifications only work when it is launched this way.

Plifto must be open in Safari for this — Chrome and other browsers on iPhone cannot add it to the home screen.

Android (Chrome)

1. When the Install Plifto button appears at the bottom of the screen, tap it.
2. Not seeing it? Open Chrome's menu (⋮, top right) and tap Install app or Add to Home screen.
3. Confirm, and Plifto installs like any other app. You'll find it in your app list — and on your home screen too if your launcher is set to add new apps there.

On Firefox for Android, there is no install button: open the menu (⋮) and tap Install.

Turn on live-meet alerts

Alerts ping you when a lifter you follow is up next or gets a result at a broadcast meet. They need three things in place:

1. Install Plifto (above). On iPhone this is required before notifications can be enabled at all.
2. Sign in — alerts are tied to your account and the lifters you follow.
3. Follow at least one lifter (see below).
4. Tap Turn on alerts when Plifto offers it, or go to Settings, and allow notifications when your phone asks.
