Why Install MocroDarija on Your Android Phone

Installing MocroDarija turns it into a real app icon on your home screen — full-screen, no browser address bar, and it opens instantly. On Android this is a smoother process than on iPhone: most of the time, your phone will simply offer to install it for you.

No Play Store account needed, no large download, and it updates itself automatically.

Step-by-Step: Install as an App

Works best in Chrome (the default browser on most Android phones). Other Chromium-based browsers like Edge or Brave also support this.

Option 1 — The automatic banner (easiest):

  1. Open mocrodarija.com in Chrome.
  2. After a few seconds of browsing, you may see a banner pop up at the bottom saying something like "Add MocroDarija to Home screen" or "Install app."
  3. Tap Install, then confirm. Done — the icon appears on your home screen or app drawer.

Option 2 — Manual install (if you don't see a banner):

  1. Open mocrodarija.com in Chrome.
  2. Tap the three-dot menu in the top-right corner.
  3. Tap "Install app" (or "Add to Home screen" on some phone brands/versions).
  4. Confirm by tapping Install.
  5. Find the MocroDarija icon on your home screen or app drawer, and tap it to open — it behaves just like any other installed app.

A Few Things to Know

  • Notifications work fully on Android — once installed, streak reminders and other push notifications work the same way they would in a native app, no extra restrictions.
  • Updates happen automatically in the background — no need to reinstall or check for updates manually.
  • Uninstalling works exactly like any other app: long-press the icon and choose Uninstall, or remove it from Settings → Apps.

Troubleshooting

I don't see an install banner or option. Some Android phones with heavily customized browsers (certain Samsung, Xiaomi, or Huawei builds) hide this option differently. Try the three-dot menu method above, or switch to Chrome if you're using a different default browser.

The app looks like a browser tab, not a real app. Make sure you tapped "Install app," not just "Add shortcut" — some menus offer both, and a shortcut just opens Chrome instead of the full-screen app experience.

It's not updating. Make sure you have an internet connection when opening the app — updates download automatically the next time you're online.

That's it — on most Android phones this takes about 15 seconds, and MocroDarija will behave exactly like an app you downloaded from the Play Store.
