Caju on your phone

Put Caju on your home screen in under a minute

Caju runs in the browser, but it can have its own icon just like any other app. On Android there is an app on Google Play; on iPhone and iPad you add it to the home screen.

Full screen

Opens without the browser bars, leaving more room for a child to tap.

One tap and it opens

The icon sits next to your other apps. Nobody has to type the address.

The same account

It is the same Caju, with the same profiles and everything you have set up. Nothing is lost.

iPhone and iPad

Add to Home Screen on iPhone

Five taps, in Safari.

The steps below are in Safari

Chrome on iPhone is very similar, only the menu sits elsewhere. What genuinely does not work is opening Caju inside Instagram, Facebook or WhatsApp: those apps use their own browser, which has no such option. Tap the three dots, choose “Open in Safari” and start there.

  1. Safari bar with the three dot button highlighted

    Tap the three dots

    In the Safari bar at the bottom, to the right of the address.

  2. Safari menu with the Share option highlighted

    Choose “Share”

    It is the first option in the menu that opens.

  3. iPhone share sheet with the More button highlighted

    Tap “More”

    It opens the full list of actions, at the end of the share sheet.

  4. Action list with the Add to Home Screen option highlighted

    Choose “Add to Home Screen”

    It is in the list that just opened, with a plus sign beside it.

  5. Confirmation screen with the Caju name and icon

    Tap “Add”

    You can keep the name Caju. Leave “Open as web app” on so it opens full screen.

That is it. From now on you open Caju from the icon, like any other app.

Android

Install the Android app

Caju is on Google Play, open to everyone. Install it and open it, like any other app.

Install from Google Play

That is it. Caju sits on your home screen like any other app and keeps itself up to date.

Install it on your Android phone or tablet

The link opens on a computer too, but the install happens on the Android device, with the Google account you already use on the Play Store.

Would you rather skip the Play Store?
You can use Caju without installing anything from the Play Store. In Chrome, open the three dot menu and choose “Install app” or “Add to Home screen”. You get your own icon and it opens full screen.

Common questions

The ones that come up most often.

I cannot see “Add to Home Screen”
That usually means the page was opened inside another app. Links opened from Instagram, Facebook or WhatsApp use their own browser, which does not offer this option. Tap the three dots, choose “Open in Safari” and repeat the steps.
Is Caju in the app stores?
On Android, yes: the app is on Google Play, and the button to install it is just above. On iPhone and iPad, the way to install it is the home screen icon, with the steps further up this page.
I already have the icon on my home screen. Is the app worth installing?
On Android, yes: it is the same Caju and the same account, but the Google Play app keeps itself up to date. Once it is installed you can remove the old shortcut. On iPhone and iPad, the icon you already have is how it is installed.
Does this take up space on my phone?
Very little. What is stored is the icon and the essentials that let Caju open quickly.
Do I need an account to install it?
No. You can add the icon first and create an account later, or sign in with the account you already have.
Do I lose anything by installing it?
No. It is the same Caju and the same account. Your profiles, routines and boards are all still there.
What if I want to remove it later?
Press and hold the icon and choose to remove it, like any other app. Your account and your work stay untouched.
Can I install it on a shared tablet?
Yes. The steps are the same on iPad and on Android tablets, and you can switch profile inside Caju whenever a different child uses it.
