Install AvaBot

City of Ava, Missouri · phones, tablets, and computers
https://avabot.avamissouri.net

iPhone / iPad

Apple does not let a city website list in the App Store by itself. Use this — it looks and works like an app and always opens your live AvaBot site.

1. Open this page in Safari (not Chrome).

2. Tap the Share button (square with an arrow).

3. Scroll and tap Add to Home Screen.

4. Tap Add. The maroon AvaBot icon appears on your home screen.

Android phone or tablet

Use Chrome. The button at the top will say Install on this device when Chrome is ready. If you do not see it:

1. Open this page in Chrome.

2. Tap the three dots (menu).

3. Tap Install app or Add to Home screen.

4. Tap Install.

Windows computer

1. Open AvaBot in Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge.

2. Click the install icon in the address bar (monitor with a down arrow), or the three-dot menu → Install AvaBot / Apps → Install this site as an app.

3. Click Install. AvaBot appears in the Start menu and can be pinned to the taskbar.

Mac

Chrome / Edge: same as Windows — install icon in the address bar. AvaBot lands in Applications and can sit in the Dock.

Safari: File → Add to Dock (Safari 17+) or Share → Add to Dock.

CivicPlus — city website

Paste this in Header / Footer scripts on avamissouri.org. The maroon button takes people to AvaBot.

What you get

Home-screen / Start-menu icon with the City of Ava seal
Opens full-screen (no browser bar)
Public chat, zoning map, and laws — no login
Staff and admin still sign in with password + 2FA on every device
Always talks to your server — nothing is stored in an app store

A real App Store / Play Store listing needs city Apple and Google developer accounts. This install from the website is what cities use until then.
