To open a calendar in a mobile browser from the Teamup app:

Open a calendar link

- You may be prompted to choose which mobile browser you want to use.
- If you have the Teamup app installed, your device will usually open the link in the app by default. To avoid this, long press to open a context menu and copy the link. Then continue with Option 2.
Option 2: Open your mobile browser, then type or paste the link into the address bar.
Note: If you open an account-based calendar URL, you’ll be prompted to log in on the mobile browser.
Use Teamup on a mobile browser
Reasons to use a mobile browser
- You want the same look and feel of the calendar on your mobile device as on the desktop.
- You are most comfortable with using Teamup in ways that are consistent on both mobile and desktop.
- You received a Teamup calendar link but would prefer not to set it up in the app.
- You want to access the calendar settings, which are not accessible from the Teamup app.

- You want to access Teamup on a tablet/iPad with the full web client experience.
Tips for using Teamup in a mobile browser
In a mobile browser, you can interact with Teamup as you would on a laptop or desktop computer. All features and functions work in the same way. However, the smaller screen size can make calendar use a bit different.
- Experiment a bit to find the best way to view your calendar on the small screen. Day, List, Agenda, and Scheduler view tend to work well on smaller screens.
- You can create and modify events, access settings, use event signups and comments, and upload files or images when using a mobile browser.
- Make use of the Sharing options that allow you to save the event to your personal calendar or to share further via social media apps, email, or as a web page.
Add a calendar link to your home screen
Make it easy to open a calendar in your mobile browser anytime by creating a shortcut. Depending on your device, these instructions may vary:
- Open the calendar in your mobile browser.
- Tap the Share menu and select Add to Home Screen, OR
- Tap the menu button in your browser and tap Add to Home Screen.
- After creating the shortcut, tap the Teamup icon to access your calendar.
You can add multiple calendar links to the home screen, resulting in multiple Teamup shortcuts. Give each shortcut a different name to differentiate between them. Your Teamup shortcuts can be placed side by side on your home screen or organized in a Teamup folder, if you prefer.
Note: Shortcut icons show the Teamup logo with a white border, whereas the Teamup app icon has a green border.
Return to the Teamup app from a mobile browser
You can alternate between viewing your calendar in the Teamup app and a mobile browser on your device. If you have the Teamup app installed, your mobile browser may show an app banner above the calendar.
To return to the app, tap the button or link in the banner.
