Sign in on your phone, update a Task there, and know what still needs desktop Chrome.

Tabflows Mobile is Tabflows in your phone's browser, with the same account and clinic. There is no app to download.

Sidekick, Team Chat and Tasks work there when your account has them. Anything that reads or clicks inside your EHR, Magic Buttons included, still needs the Chrome extension on a computer. Patient information on a small screen is still patient information, so keep the phone locked and to yourself.

## Topics

### Open Tabflows on your phone

Tabflows Mobile runs in your phone's browser with the same account; there's no app store download. Sidekick, Team Chat and Tasks are in the mobile menu.

1. In your phone's browser, go to app.tabflows.com and sign in.
2. Open the mobile menu to switch between **Sidekick**, **Team Chat** and **Tasks**.
3. Optional: open app.tabflows.com/tasks and choose **Install** or **Add to Home Screen** from the browser menu.

Tip: Type in **Ask anything**, or tap the microphone to dictate.

### Know what still needs your computer

Your phone can ask, read, draft and plan. Anything that reads or acts inside a live EHR page, including Magic Buttons and automatic page capture, needs desktop Chrome.

Tip: Draft on your phone, save it in the conversation or a Task, then finish the EHR step at your computer.

### Keep patient information safe on your phone

Use a phone with a screen lock, avoid shared devices for patient work, and attach only what's needed.

1. Confirm the patient before every patient question.
2. Crop out unrelated information before attaching a photo or screenshot.
3. Lock the phone when you're done, and sign out on a shared device.

## Do it in Tabflows

Put Tabflows on your phone and update one Task from it.

1. On a phone that locks with a passcode, Face ID or fingerprint, open [app.tabflows.com](https://app.tabflows.com) and sign in as usual.
2. Open the mobile menu and choose **Tasks**.
3. From the browser's menu (Safari's Share menu on iPhone), choose **Install** or **Add to Home Screen**, or bookmark the page.
4. Open the Task you created in Module 2 and add a comment or mark it done.
5. Lock your phone when you finish, and sign out if anyone else uses it.
