Yala works in your mobile browser. You can pin it to your Home Screen so it opens like an app — no App Store download needed.
Use the live app at https://app.useyala.com.
iPhone (Safari)
- Open Safari (Add to Home Screen is most reliable in Safari).
- Go to app.useyala.com.
- Tap the Share button (square with an upward arrow) in the address bar.
- Scroll and tap Add to Home Screen.
- Confirm the name (for example, "Yala"), then tap Add.
Yala appears on your Home Screen. Tap the icon anytime to open it in a full-screen Safari window.
Android (Chrome)
- Open Chrome.
- Go to app.useyala.com.
- Tap the ⋮ menu (top right).
- Tap Add to Home screen or Install app (wording varies by Chrome version).
- Confirm, then tap Add / Install.
Yala appears on your Home Screen like other apps.
Tips
- Bookmarking alone is not the same as Home Screen — use the steps above for a one-tap icon.
- If you do not see "Add to Home Screen" on iPhone, make sure you are in Safari (not Chrome or in-app browsers).
- After adding, you still sign in with email + OTP (or passkey, if you have set one up).
