Northbank on your
home screen
No app store needed. Add Northbank to your iPhone or Android phone in four taps and open it full-screen, with its own icon, just like any other app.
You are already using the Northbank app. Nothing else to do.

About the app
Why is there no App Store download?
Northbank runs as a web app. Adding it to your home screen gives you the same icon, full-screen view and quick launch as a store app, without a download and always on the latest version.
Does it take up space on my phone?
Almost none. It is a shortcut to the site with its own icon, not a large download.
I use a different browser.
On iPhone, Chrome and Edge also offer “Add to Home Screen” from their Share button. On Android, Samsung Internet has it under the menu ≡ → Add page to → Home screen.
How do I remove it?
Press and hold the Northbank icon, then choose Remove App (iPhone) or Uninstall / Remove (Android).
