Native App Store + Google Play listings ship alongside the first cohort of brewery customers. Until then, the home- screen install is the fastest path.

A quick walkthrough of the home-screen install on iPhone and Android.

Install video coming this week.

In the meantime — the written steps below cover both iOS and Android.

How to add Barley to your home screen.

iPhone (Safari)

  1. Open Safari and go to barley.brewlytics.ai (or scan the QR code above).
  2. Tap the Share button — the square with an arrow pointing up, at the bottom of the screen.
  3. Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen.
  4. Confirm the name (default is "Barley") and tap Add in the top right.
  5. Barley is now on your home screen — tap it anytime to open instantly.

Note: must be Safari. Chrome on iOS does not support Add-to-Home-Screen for third-party sites.

Android (Chrome)

  1. Open Chrome and go to barley.brewlytics.ai (or scan the QR code above).
  2. Tap the three-dot menu in the top right of Chrome.
  3. Tap Install app or Add to Home screen. (Chrome may show this as a banner at the bottom of the page instead — either path works.)
  4. Confirm Install when prompted.
  5. Barley shows up in your app drawer and on your home screen.

Other browsers (Firefox, Samsung Internet) also support PWA install with similar menu paths.

Common questions

Is this a real app, or just a web bookmark?
Real app — Barley is a Progressive Web App. Once installed, it opens full-screen with its own icon, remembers your taste profile, and works offline for cached content. Push notifications too, when you opt in.
Will the native App Store version replace this?
No — both will coexist. The native iOS / Android versions ship with the first cohort of brewery customers later this year. The PWA continues to work for anyone who prefers it or who lands on barley.brewlytics.ai via a QR code or shared link.
Why no App Store yet?
Faster iteration. PWA updates ship the moment we deploy them — no review cycle. We'll list on the App Store and Google Play once the core experience is locked, and PWA visitors will get a banner inviting them to switch if they want.
