Install the free Tailscale utility on your devices and reach Kantivo from any location - a coffee shop, a client's office, or while traveling. Connections are fully encrypted.
Pin Kantivo to your device's home screen for an experience that looks and feels like a native application. It launches in its own window and behaves like a dedicated app.
In Safari, tap Share and then "Add to Home Screen." A Kantivo icon appears alongside your other apps.
In Chrome, open the menu and select "Add to Home screen." Kantivo launches full-screen without the browser toolbar.
