Put BOOM ERP on your phone's home screen
BOOM ERP installs straight from your phone's browser — no App Store, no Google Play, nothing to search for. Open the link, follow the steps for your phone, and the orange BOOM icon ends up on your home screen next to everything else.

What changes once it's installed
It is the same BOOM ERP you already use in the browser — but opened from an icon instead of a bookmark, and running full screen like any other app on your phone.
Full screen, no address bar
The app is set to open in standalone mode, so there is no browser address bar and no tab strip — just BOOM ERP filling the whole screen, the way a normal app looks.
Its own icon, named "Boom"
The icon that lands on your home screen is labelled Boom. On Android it ships in a maskable version, so it fills your launcher's icon shape properly instead of sitting in a white box.
Orange status bar
The app declares a theme colour of #f58532, so the bar at the top of the screen picks up BOOM's orange instead of the default browser grey. A small thing you notice every time you open it.
Four long-press shortcuts
Press and hold the icon and you jump straight into one of four places: لوحة التحكم (Dashboard), الفواتير (Invoices), المهام (Tasks) or العملاء (Clients) — without loading the dashboard first.
BOOM ERP is a web app you install from the browser
There is no BOOM ERP listing on the App Store or on Google Play. Searching a store for it will not find anything — and that is intentional.
BOOM ERP is a PWA (Progressive Web App). You open app.boom-erp.com in your phone's browser and tell the browser to add it to your home screen. From that moment it behaves like an app: its own icon, its own window, full screen, no address bar. Two practical consequences:
- Nothing is downloaded from a store. No Apple or Google account to create and no app package to fetch — the browser builds the icon itself from the page you already have open.
- It is always the latest version. Because it loads from our servers each time you open it, you never have a pending update and your team is never split across different app versions.
- It works on both platforms from the same link. Android and iPhone both install from app.boom-erp.com — only the buttons you tap are different.
One honest limitation: BOOM ERP does not work offline. Your dashboard always loads live from the server and is deliberately never cached, so that you are never shown stale invoices, tasks or balances. You need an internet connection to use the app.
How to install it — watch it, then do it
Each phone below plays the real install flow for its platform on a loop. The written steps under it say the same thing in words.
Android — Chrome
- Open app.boom-erp.com in Chrome.
- Tap the ⋮ menu at the top right.
- Tap Install app — on some phones it reads Add to Home screen.
- Confirm with Install in the little box that appears.
- The orange Boom icon appears on your home screen. Tap it to open the app full screen.
Nothing is downloaded from Google Play — Chrome creates the icon itself.
iPhone — Safari
- Open app.boom-erp.com — it must be in Safari.
- Tap the Share button (the square with an arrow pointing up) at the bottom centre.
- Scroll down the list that slides up.
- Tap Add to Home Screen.
- Tap Add at the top right. The Boom icon appears on your home screen.
iPhone never offers to install the app by itself — you have to go through Share.
iPhone users, read this one line. Apple only gives you "Add to Home Screen" reliably in Safari. If you opened the link from inside WhatsApp, Instagram, Gmail or Chrome, the option may be missing — tap the "open in Safari" option first, or paste app.boom-erp.com into Safari directly. And unlike Android, iOS will never pop up an install prompt on its own.
What the installed app actually does
Everything below is how the app is configured today — no extras promised:
- Opens on your dashboard. Tapping the icon takes you to /admin, and asks you to log in if you are not already.
- Full screen. Standalone display, so no address bar and no browser tabs.
- Named "Boom". That is the label under the icon on both platforms.
- Orange status bar from the app's theme colour, and a white background while it loads.
- Rotates freely — portrait or landscape, whichever you hold.
- Four shortcuts on a long-press of the icon.
- Supports notifications at the technical level; whether they are switched on depends on your account setup.
Press and hold the icon
Instead of opening the dashboard and navigating, a long press on the Boom icon jumps you straight to one of these four screens:
- لوحة التحكم — the main dashboard.
- الفواتير — your invoice list.
- المهام — your tasks.
- العملاء — your clients.
