Can't find the install option?

If you opened this link inside Instagram, Facebook or an email app, use its menu to open it in Safari or Chrome. Try a regular browser tab instead of private browsing. Your browser may also hide the option when the app is already installed.

On a computer, use the address-bar install icon or browser menu; in Safari on Mac, choose File → Add to Dock when available.

You can always use the website without installing. Signing in, uploads and saving changes need an internet connection.
