Install ScienceTraining on your mobile devices* (to be fair, it works on desktop, laptop and mobile devices). No need to install anything from the app store. Just install an icon to the web app, right on your home screen, for easy access. This way you won’t have to login to your account through your browser every time you need to access your training platform.

*provided that your browser supports push notifications

It only takes a few taps — or clicks — and you’re done. All you have to do is login to your ScienceTraining account through your mobile browser (it will go even smoother) and follow a few simple steps.  


Once you’re done with the installation of ScienceTraining to your mobile home screen you’ll be able to view the push notifications** of the latest actions performed by your athletes(or your coach) on your device. 

**push notification functionality is supported by all major browsers. 


Note here that we'll only show you the latest push notifications that correspond to the events that happened in the last 10 minutes', so as to not overwhelm you with notifications. You’ll still be able to see the complete set of notifications through the notifications bell icon, by clicking or tapping on the “View all notifications” option.

    Now you may find the STR shortcut on your Home screen.




Turning on and off the notifications 

The notifications settings for your training platform in your STR app and your Chrome browser  are shared. If you enable notifications on your Chrome browser they’ll be enabled in your STR app and vice versa. 



The first time you open your STR app on your Android device you'll receive the following prompt message regarding your notifications. 





If you didn’t unblock your notifications settings on the previous step (i.e. enabling push notifications) you’ll see the following popup message on your first login to the STR app that prompts you to modify the notification settings. You may click on “Manage” or “Allow for this site” based on whether you prefer to get push notifications or not.
