Install Cycad Central on your phone
Cycad Central is not in the App Store or Play Store. You add it straight from your browser — it then sits on your home screen with its own icon and opens like any other app.
Android phone (Chrome)
- 1Open www.cycadcentral.com in Chrome — not inside WhatsApp or Facebook.
- 2Tap the three dots at the top right of Chrome.
- 3Tap "Add to Home screen" (sometimes shown as "Install app").
- 4Tap "Install" or "Add" to confirm. The cycad icon appears with your other apps.
iPhone and iPad (Safari)
- 1Open www.cycadcentral.com in Safari. Chrome and in-app browsers cannot install it on iPhone.
- 2Tap the Share button (a square with an arrow pointing up) in the Safari toolbar.
- 3Scroll down the list and tap "Add to Home Screen".
- 4Tap "Add" at the top right. The cycad icon appears with your other apps.
If you cannot find the install option
- You may have opened the link inside WhatsApp, Facebook or Instagram. Those built-in browsers cannot install apps — tap the three dots and choose “Open in browser” first.
- On an iPhone you must use Safari. On Android, use Chrome or Samsung Internet.
- Make sure the address shows www.cycadcentral.com. A preview or shared link may not offer installing.
- Private or incognito browsing blocks installing — use a normal window.
- It may already be installed. Check your home screen and app list for the cycad icon before trying again.
