Why Install Kingpin
Kingpin is a Progressive Web App (PWA). That means you can install it straight from your browser and run it like a native app, without going through an App Store or Play Store.
What You Get
- A home-screen or desktop icon that opens Kingpin in one tap
- A full-screen experience without browser tabs and toolbars
- Faster loading after the first visit
- The same secure login, listings, and messaging you already use
No Store Download Needed
You do not need to find Kingpin in the Apple App Store or Google Play. Installing happens directly from your browser, and updates are automatic.

Troubleshooting
I don't see an install option
The install prompt or icon is missing.
Make sure you are using a supported browser (Safari on iOS, Chrome on Android, Chrome or Edge on desktop) and that the page has fully loaded. Refresh the page and try again.
Nothing happens in another browser on iPhone
Add to Home Screen is greyed out or missing.
On iPhone and iPad, only Safari can install web apps. Open the same Kingpin link in Safari and use the Share menu.
The installed app looks out of date
You see older content after installing.
Kingpin updates automatically. Close and reopen the app, and make sure your device has an internet connection so it can refresh.
