Short answer
Mobile AI companion = open https://www.aisoul.work in browser → Add to Home Screen (PWA) → chat fullscreen like an app. No App Store required for adult features — stores censor NSFW binaries (DatingDroid via PWA vs app).
Key takeaways
- iOS: use Safari → Share → Add to Home Screen (Chrome iOS bookmark ≠ full PWA).
- Android: Chrome → Install app / Add to Home Screen.
- Discretion: browser/PWA = no app icon in store library if you use private tab (tradeoff: less convenient).
- Same account on phone and desktop — one companion thread.
Step 1 — Open the official site
Go to https://www.aisoul.work (or your chosen companion’s official URL only).
Avoid fake “Candy AI” / “Replika” clones in app stores.
Step 2 — Install PWA (recommended)
Android (Chrome)
1. Open www.aisoul.work
2. Tap ⋮ menu → Install app or Add to Home screen
3. Launch from icon — fullscreen chat
iOS (Safari)
1. Open www.aisoul.work in Safari (not only Chrome)
2. Tap Share → Add to Home Screen
3. Name it → Add
Step 3 — Register or log in

- UTM-free chat: `/chat?gf=ID`
- Free tier limits — see /pricing.html

Do I need to download an AI girlfriend app?
Not for AISoul — browser/PWA is the full product. Native apps often lack 18+ features.
