How to Install VS Compete as an App
VS Compete runs great in a browser — but installing it to your home screen makes it faster, full-screen and alert-ready, and hands you a one-time token bonus. Here’s how, on either phone.
Why install
- A one-time +20🪙 bonus for opening the installed app.
- Challenge alerts — get pinged when a friend challenges you or your Pit challenge is taken. See challenge alerts.
- Full-screen & faster — no browser bars, and it preloads so screens snap in instantly.
iPhone (Safari) 🍏
- Open vscompete.com in Safari.
- Tap the Share button, then Add to Home Screen.
- Open VS Compete from the new home-screen icon — that’s it.
Android (Chrome) 🤖
- Open vscompete.com in Chrome.
- Tap the menu (⋮), then Install app (or Add to Home screen).
- Confirm, then launch it from your home screen.
Same account, everywhere: installing doesn’t create a new account — your tokens, rank and friends carry straight over. It’s the same VS Compete, just faster and full-screen.
Turn on alerts after installing
Once installed, flip on Alerts in your Account so challenges reach you even when the app is closed — especially important on iPhone, where alerts only work after installing. Full steps in the alerts guide.
