# Install and notifications

Keep your Lair on your home screen and hear when an agent needs you.

Canonical: https://help.lair.so/guides/notifications

## Add your Lair to your home screen

Open **Settings → Notifications**. If your browser supports installation, choose **Install**. On iPhone or iPad, open your Lair in Safari, tap Share, then **Add to Home Screen**.

Open it from that icon to use the installed app. Your Lair still works in a regular browser.

## Turn notifications on

1. Open Settings → Notifications on the device you want to notify.
2. Select **Turn on notifications** and allow the browser prompt.
3. Use **Send a test** to check delivery.

On iPhone and iPad, add Lair to the Home Screen first. If notifications are blocked, allow them in your browser’s site settings. Some browsers do not support them.

## Choose what reaches you

Choose notifications for messages to you, questions and approvals, and alerts. Notifications are enabled per device; turn them off there if you no longer want them. While Lair is open in front of you, updates appear in the app instead.

A notification depends on an agent or integration producing the update. It does not schedule or keep the agent running.
