Fifecta
You Won't Find It in the App Store
Fifecta is a web app you add to your Home Screen. Same money plan, same login. After you add it, it has an icon, opens full screen, and can send bill and message alerts. This kind of app is also called a PWA.
What That Means
One app, two places
The site and the Home Screen icon are the same Fifecta. Sign in once. Your plan is right there.
Alerts need the icon
On iPhone, messages and bill reminders only reach you after you add Fifecta from Safari and open it from the new icon.
Fixes land the same day
There is no store review to wait on. When we fix something, you get it the next time you open Fifecta.
On an iPhone
iPad is the same. Use Safari. Chrome on iPhone can bookmark the site, but it cannot turn Fifecta into an app that can send alerts.
- 1
Open Safari
Use Safari, not Chrome, and not the browser inside Instagram, Messages, or your email. If a link opened Fifecta in one of those, tap the dots or Share and choose Open in Safari.

Go to Fifecta and sign in
Visit fifecta.pricelesstay.com and sign in. You add the page you're looking at, so sign in first.
- 3
Tap Share
That's the square with an arrow pointing up. It's on the Safari toolbar. If your tabs sit at the top or bottom of the screen, Share is still there — tap the page menu if you don't see it right away.

Tap Add to Home Screen, then Add
Scroll the Share list until you see Add to Home Screen. If it isn't there, scroll to the bottom, tap Edit Actions, and add it. If you see Open as Web App, leave it on so Fifecta opens like an app, not a Safari tab. Then tap Add.

Open the new icon

Common questions
Fifecta is a web app (sometimes called a PWA). It's the same app in your browser and on your Home Screen. We can ship a fix the day we make it, instead of waiting on a store review. You still get an icon, a full-screen app, and phone alerts.
Yes, once it's on your Home Screen. It opens full screen, stays signed in, and can send bill and message alerts. On iPhone, alerts only work after you add it from Safari and open it from the new icon.
iPhone only treats Fifecta as an app when you add it from Safari. Delete the icon you made in Chrome, open fifecta.pricelesstay.com in Safari, and add it from there.
No. You can keep using it in a browser on your phone or computer. Adding it to the Home Screen is how it feels like an app, and how iPhone alerts can reach you.
