The portal, on your phone's screen
It opens full screen, with the MD Trade logo, and you stay logged in. It doesn't go through Google Play or the App Store: you add it straight from the browser, in two taps, and it takes up as much space as a shortcut.
It's already on your screen. You're reading this from the app right now.
If the red button above didn't show up, you can do it from Chrome's menu.
- Open the MD Trade portal
- Tap the three-dot menu, top right
- Choose Install and create a shortcut
- Of the two, tap Install
Install
this one
“Create shortcut” just adds a link that still opens in Chrome, with the address bar and a faded icon. Install adds the real app.
It has to be opened in Safari. It can't be done from Chrome on iPhone — that's Apple's decision, which is why there's no button on iPhone.
- Open the MD Trade portal in Safari
- Tap Share, at the bottom center
- Scroll the list and choose Add to Home Screen
- Tap Add, top right
Questions people ask anyway
- Does it take up space on the phone?
- Practically no. It's not a downloaded app, it's a shortcut that remembers the portal opens full screen.
- Does it work without internet?
- No, and that's intentional. Your account's prices and availability are read live; a price kept in the phone's memory would be an outdated price. No signal tells you plainly that you have no signal.
- Do I have to log in every time?
- No. The session stays open, like in any app.
- How do I remove it?
- Like any icon: press and hold it, then choose to remove it. The account stays untouched.
