Open this in your phone's browser

You're in an app's browser. It can't add Spot to your Home Screen or show notifications, and it keeps its own sign-in.

Continue anyway

Add to Home Screen and notifications

Put k5e Spot on your Home Screen so it opens like an app, and turn on notifications for your turn.

k5e Spot runs in your phone’s browser. Add it to your Home Screen and it opens like an app, full screen and one tap away. That’s also what makes notifications possible: on iPhone and iPad, notifications only work once Spot is on your Home Screen.

Use your phone’s own browser. The built-in browsers inside apps like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok or Gmail can’t add Spot to your Home Screen or show notifications. Open the menu (⋯ or ⋮) and choose Open in browser first.

iPhone and iPad

Works in Safari, Chrome, Edge and Firefox.

  1. Open spot.k5e.live and tap Share:
    • Safari: the Share button in the toolbar
    • Chrome and Firefox: Share in the address bar
    • Edge: the menu (⋯), then Share
  2. Choose Add to Home Screen.
  3. Open k5e Spot from your Home Screen and sign in. Spot on your Home Screen keeps its own sign-in, separate from the browser’s.
  4. Turn on notifications (see below).

Android

In Chrome, Spot can install itself: open Settings in Spot and tap Add to Home Screen, then Install. If you don’t see it, open the browser menu (⋮) and choose Install app (or Add to Home screen).

On a computer

In Chrome or Edge, Spot’s Settings shows Add to Home Screen when the browser can install it. Spot is made for the phone in your pocket, though: that’s where your place in line and your notifications are most useful.

Turn on notifications

Notifications are up to your host: they turn them on per night. When they’re on, Spot can tell you:

  • when your turn is coming up
  • when you’re next
  • when you’re on

To turn them on, tap Notify me on the “Don’t miss your turn” card at the event, then allow notifications when your phone asks. You can also turn them on any time under Settings → Notifications. The setting is per device.

If Spot says notifications are blocked, allow notifications for k5e Spot in your phone’s or browser’s settings. Signing out turns them off on that device; signing back in turns them on again.
