Install Communitrak on Android

Add Communitrak to your Android home screen for quick access, just like a native app.

Communitrak can be installed directly to your Android home screen from your browser. Once installed, it opens in its own window, just like a native app, with no app store download required.

Chrome changes the wording and the position of this menu option from one version to the next, so your screen may not match these steps exactly. The wording to look for is listed in each step.

Install using Chrome

  1. Open Chrome on your Android device.

  2. Go to https://app.communitrak.com, but don't log in yet.

  3. Tap the three-dot menu icon (⋮). It is in the top-right corner on most devices. On newer versions of Chrome, the menu opens from the bottom of the screen instead.

  4. Scroll down the menu to the install option. Depending on your version of Chrome it reads Install and create shortcut…, Add to Home screen, or Install app. On newer versions it sits near the bottom of the menu, between Show Reading mode and Desktop site.

  5. If Chrome offers a choice between Install and Create shortcut, choose Install. Installing opens Communitrak in its own window and allows push notifications, while a shortcut just reopens the browser.

  6. Confirm the name and tap Install (or Add).

The Communitrak icon will appear on your home screen. Tap it to open Communitrak in its own window without the browser address bar.

Enable push notifications

  1. Open Communitrak from your home screen.

  2. When prompted, allow notifications to receive updates instantly.

Things to know

  • Communitrak is not downloaded from the Google Play Store. It is installed directly from your browser.

  • Installation works best with Google Chrome. Other Android browsers may not support installing to the home screen or push notifications reliably.

  • You will still receive push notifications (if enabled) just like a native app.

  • To uninstall, long-press the Communitrak icon on your home screen and select Uninstall or Remove.

  • If you cannot find the option, scroll further down the menu, and make sure you are running an up-to-date version of Chrome. The option is also missing if Communitrak is already installed on that device.

If you have questions or need help, chat with Communitrak Support from any page using the messenger icon in the bottom-right corner.
