Will this work on your phone?

This page installs MidwithMe as a web app, which means it behaves like a real app and can send notifications. But it only works on newer phones and browsers. Check below before you install. If your device is too old, the icon will just be a bookmark, every tap will dump you on the login screen, and notifications won't work.

If you're on iPhone or iPad

Your phone needs all of these:

  • iOS or iPadOS 16.4 or newer
  • iPhone 8 or newer (or any iPad released 2018 or later)
  • You must use Safari to install (not Chrome)

For the best experience, update to iOS 26. That's where the "Open as Web App" toggle appears in the install dialog. If you see that toggle, you're set.

If you're on Android

Your phone needs all of these:

  • Android 8.0 or newer
  • Chrome, Samsung Internet, Edge, or Firefox (Chrome works best)
  • Latest version of your browser

Chrome will usually offer to install MidwithMe automatically with a small banner. If you see it, just tap install. Otherwise follow the manual steps below.

It will NOT work as an app if:

You're on iPhone 7 or older, or any iPhone running iOS 15 or earlier. Apple won't let these phones update past iOS 15, so installing will only create a bookmark that opens Safari.

You install on Android using a very old browser, or an Android version older than 8.0 (Oreo).

You install via Chrome on iPhone instead of Safari. Always use Safari on iPhone.

How to check my iPhone or iPad's iOS version
  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Tap General.
  3. Tap About.
  4. Look at the line that says iOS Version or Software Version.

If the number starts with 16.4 or higher, you're good. If it's lower, go back to Settings → General → Software Update and install the latest update. If no update is offered, your phone is too old to update further.

How to check which iPhone or iPad I have
  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Tap General.
  3. Tap About.
  4. Look at the line that says Model Name.

If it says iPhone 8 or higher (including iPhone X, XS, XR, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, SE 2nd or 3rd gen), you're good. If it says iPhone 7, 6s, 6, 5s, or SE 1st gen, your phone is too old for this to work as a real app.

How to check my Android version
  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Scroll down and tap About phone (sometimes called About device).
  3. Tap Android version (or Software information on Samsung).

If the number is 8.0 or higher, you're good. If it's lower, check Settings → System → Software update to see if any updates are available. Some older phones can't update past a certain Android version.

How to update my browser

On iPhone: Safari updates with iOS. Update iOS to update Safari. Go to Settings → General → Software Update.

On Android: Open the Google Play Store, tap your profile icon (top right), tap Manage apps & device, then Updates available. Find Chrome (or your browser) and tap Update.

Phone too old to install? Don't worry.

You can still use MidwithMe by visiting app.midwithme.com.au in your browser any time. You'll just need to log in each visit and won't get notifications. Bookmark the page so it's easy to find.

Add MidwithMe to your home screen.

Pick your device below.

Important: Log in first and make sure you're on your dashboard (home) before you add to home screen. If you skip this, the icon won't open MidwithMe like a proper app, it'll just take you back to the login page every time.
  1. 1

    Open MidwithMe in Safari and log in

    Open Safari on your iPhone or iPad and go to app.midwithme.com.au. Log in to your account. The app should open straight to your home dashboard. If you're not signed up yet, join free first, then come back here.

  2. 2

    Tap the Share button

    Make sure you're on the home dashboard, then tap the Share icon in Safari. It looks like a square with an arrow pointing upward out of it. The button is in the menu bar (at the top or bottom of your screen depending on your tab layout).

    This is what the Share button looks like.
  3. 3

    Tap "Add to Home Screen"

    Scroll down the share sheet and tap Add to Home Screen. If you don't see it, scroll further down the list. You may need to tap Edit Actions at the bottom and add it.

  4. 4

    Tap Add

    On iOS 26 and later, leave the Open as Web App toggle on for the best app-like experience. Then tap Add in the top-right corner.

    If you don't see an "Open as Web App" toggle at all on iOS 26: stop here. Your phone is too old or your iOS version is below 16.4. The install will only create a bookmark that takes you to the login screen every open. Update your iOS or use MidwithMe in your browser instead.
  5. 5

    Done

    MidwithMe will now appear on your iPhone home screen, just like any other app. Tap it to open instantly, you'll stay logged in.

Open the app now and add it in 30 seconds.
