What's out of sight, can often be, out of mind! πŸ™ˆ For those of us that would like a little more reminder πŸ™‹πŸ» - you can now create a Llama Life shortcut (as a PWA) to your desktop and use it like an app.
​
You can install it and it'll appear alongside your other apps for super convenient use.

To install Llama Life as a shortcut:

  1. Log into Llama Life and click on 'open llama'

  2. You will see a yellow banner on the bottom of the task manager, click on 'add a shortcut'

  3. Click on 'install'. You should now see the Llama Life logo in your dock/task bar

  4. Very important! Right click on the Llama Life logo and then 'Keep in dock', (or 'pin to task bar' if on Windows)

  5. You can now access your task manager by clicking on the Llama Life icon!

I've dismissed the banner, but now want to install the shortcut

If you've dismissed the yellow banner, but now would like to install the shortcut, you can:

  1. Click on 'Settings'

  2. Scroll down to the 'Help' section

  3. Click on 'Download as a web app'

  4. Click on 'install'. You should now see the Llama Life logo in your dock/task bar

  5. Very important! Right click on the Llama Life logo and then 'Keep in dock' (or 'pin to task bar' if on Windows)

  6. You can now access your task manager by clicking on the Llama Life icon!

I'm stuck on the loading screen, but it never loads?

On some browsers (including Brave browser) and depending on your Settings, you may find that the task manager does not open. In this situation, it is most likely your Settings.

In order to allow the task manager to load:

  1. Click on the red X (located at the top, right corner)

  2. Click on 'always allow pop-ups and redirects from https://llamalife.co)

  3. The task manager should open now

If you continue to experience issues, please let us know on hey@llamalife.co

I don't see the yellow banner at all?

For some browsers (including Safari and Firefox), the yellow banner will not pop up, but you can still add Llama Life as a bookmark by:

  1. Make sure Safari/Firefox is your main browser

    • To make it your main browser (detailed instructions for Mac):

    • Open Safari/Firefox

    • Click on 'Safari/Firefox' in the top left hand corner

    • Go to 'Settings'

    • Click on 'General'

    • Click on 'Set Default'

  2. Drag this url to the very right of your dock/task bar

  3. This will bookmark Llama Life, and you will be able to open the task manager by clicking on the icon
