Put the Gate Screen on Your Phone’s Home Screen

Install the Yardor gate screen as a home-screen app on Android or iPhone: one tap opens it full screen, straight to the gate. Installing is optional — the gate screen works exactly the same in your browser.

The gate screen can sit on your phone’s home screen like an app: one tap opens it full screen, straight to the gate. Installing is optional — the gate screen works exactly the same in your browser, and nothing about your work changes if you skip it.

The install card only appears where it makes sense: on a phone or tablet that has not installed it yet. On a desktop computer nothing is shown, and once you are running the installed app the card is gone for good.

Android (Chrome)#

1. Open the gate screen in Chrome on the phone.
2. On the card at the top of the screen, tap Install Gate app and confirm.
3. The Yardor Gate icon appears on the home screen. Tap it any time to go straight to the gate.

If you closed the card earlier, a small Install Gate app button stays at the top of the gate screen — tap it to bring the card back. You can also install from Chrome’s menu (⋮ → Install app).

iPhone (Safari)#

Safari has no install prompt of its own, so the card walks you through the Share sheet instead:

1. Open the gate screen in Safari on the phone.
2. Tap the Share button, then Add to Home Screen, then Add.
3. The Yardor Gate icon appears on the home screen.

The first time you open the app#

Sign in once inside the app window. After that, everything works as usual: scanning a driver’s code, verifying the vehicle, confirming entry, and checking vehicles out. If you sign in with a gate account, you land straight on the gate screen, just like in the browser.

If you don’t want it#

Close the card with the ✕ — it will not pop up again, and the gate screen keeps working in your browser exactly as before; only the small entry button at the top remains, in case you change your mind. To remove the home-screen icon later, long-press it and delete it like any other app shortcut; nothing else changes.
