Installing TicketWave as a mobile app (PWA)
Mobile App
Install TicketWave on Your Device
TicketWave is a Progressive Web App (PWA). This means you can install it directly from your browser on any phone, tablet, or desktop computer — no App Store or Google Play required.
Why install the app?
- Instant access — Launch TicketWave from your home screen like any other app.
- Offline scanning — The QR scanner works without internet. Ticket data syncs to your device so you can scan at venues with poor connectivity.
- Push-style experience — Runs in its own window, no browser address bar clutter.
- Always up to date — Unlike native apps, PWAs update automatically. You always have the latest version.
How to install on iPhone / iPad (Safari)
- Open ticketwavehq.com in Safari and log in to your dashboard.
- Tap the Share button (the square with an arrow pointing up).
- Scroll down and tap "Add to Home Screen".
- Tap "Add" in the top-right corner.
- TicketWave now appears on your home screen as an app icon.
How to install on Android (Chrome)
- Open ticketwavehq.com in Chrome and log in to your dashboard.
- You may see an "Install app" banner at the bottom — tap "Install".
- If no banner appears, tap the three-dot menu in the top-right corner.
- Tap "Install app" or "Add to Home screen".
- Confirm by tapping "Install".
How to install on Desktop (Chrome / Edge)
- Open ticketwavehq.com in Chrome or Edge and log in.
- Look for the install icon in the address bar (a monitor with a down arrow).
- Click it and confirm "Install".
- TicketWave opens in its own window and is pinned to your taskbar/dock.
Troubleshooting
- No install option? Make sure you are using Safari on iOS or Chrome/Edge on Android and desktop. Firefox does not fully support PWA installation on desktop.
- Already installed? If you have previously installed the app, the install option may not appear. Check your home screen or app drawer.
- Offline not working? Open the scanner page at least once while connected to the internet so ticket data can sync to your device.
