BAconn is a Progressive Web App (PWA). Once installed:

  • Dedicated app icon on home screen / dock
  • Full-screen window without browser chrome
  • Push notifications for sync errors (even when the app is closed)
  • Faster launch because layout and scripts come from the browser cache
  • True offline mode for status changes, availability, and interview notes โ€” see Working offline

Important limits: first-time login, BA sync, billing, and new records (jobs, candidates) still require a connection.

Android (Chrome / Edge / Samsung Internet):

  1. On /dashboard, click "Install as app" in the top-right header
  2. Confirm "Install" in the browser dialog
  3. Icon appears on the home screen

iPhone / iPad (Safari, iOS 16.4+ for push):

  1. In Safari, tap Share at the bottom (square with arrow)
  2. Pick "Add to Home Screen"
  3. Confirm the name โ†’ BAconn icon appears
  4. Enable push under My account โ†’ Push notifications

Desktop (Chrome / Edge):

Address bar โ†’ small plus icon, or browser menu โ†’ "Install app". BAconn opens in its own window without browser tabs.

Login persists: after install, you stay logged in for 7 days. Device restart, app close, or battery drain all survive โ€” only "Logout" or clearing browser data signs you out.

Multiple devices: install BAconn on phone, tablet, and desktop simultaneously โ€” each device gets its own push subscription.
