You don't need to go through an App Store to install Dokitscript on your phone. As a Progressive Web App (PWA), Dokitscript can be added to your home screen in seconds — and on Android, you can share TikTok, Instagram and YouTube videos directly to Dokitscript without any copy-pasting.

What Is a Progressive Web App?

A Progressive Web App (PWA) is a website that behaves like a native mobile app. It can be installed on your home screen, opens without the browser address bar, works in fullscreen, and — on Android — appears in the system share sheet alongside apps like WhatsApp and Twitter.

No App Store, no update downloads, no storage permissions. Dokitscript is always up to date the moment you open it.

Install on Android (Chrome) — Recommended

Android with Chrome gives you the full experience, including the direct share feature.

1

Open Chrome and go to dokitscript.com

Make sure you're using Chrome — other Android browsers may not support PWA installation.

2

Tap "Add to Home Screen"

Chrome may show an install banner at the bottom automatically. If not, tap the ⋮ menu (top right) and select "Add to Home Screen" or "Install app".

3

Confirm the install

A dialog appears asking you to confirm. Tap Install. Dokitscript appears on your home screen as an app icon — a purple "D".

4

Dokitscript now appears in your share sheet

Open TikTok, Instagram or YouTube. Find a video and tap the Share button. Dokitscript will appear in the list of apps you can share to.

How to Share a TikTok Directly to Dokitscript

Once installed on Android, the workflow is completely seamless:

  1. Open TikTok (or Instagram or YouTube) and find a video you want to transcribe.
  2. Tap the Share button (arrow icon).
  3. In the share sheet, tap Dokitscript.
  4. Dokitscript opens, detects the platform automatically (TikTok / Instagram / YouTube), and starts transcribing immediately — no copy-paste needed.

The whole process takes about 5–10 seconds from tapping Share to having your transcript on screen.

Install on iPhone (Safari)

iPhone users can also install Dokitscript on their home screen, though the direct share feature is not available on iOS.

1

Open Safari and go to dokitscript.com

This only works in Safari — Chrome and Firefox on iPhone do not support PWA installation.

2

Tap the Share button

Tap the Share icon at the bottom of the screen (a box with an arrow pointing up).

3

Tap "Add to Home Screen"

Scroll down in the share sheet and tap "Add to Home Screen". Confirm by tapping Add.

4

Open Dokitscript from your home screen

Dokitscript opens in fullscreen mode — no address bar, no browser UI. To transcribe a video from TikTok or Instagram, copy the link manually and paste it into Dokitscript.

Android vs iPhone — What's Different?

🤖 Android (Chrome)

  • ✓ Installs as a home screen app
  • ✓ Opens in fullscreen (no browser bar)
  • ✓ Appears in system share sheet
  • ✓ Share TikTok / Instagram / YouTube directly
  • ✓ Transcription starts automatically

🍎 iPhone (Safari)

  • ✓ Installs as a home screen app
  • ✓ Opens in fullscreen (no browser bar)
  • ✗ Does not appear in share sheet
  • ✗ No direct share from TikTok / Instagram
  • → Copy link manually and paste
Why no share on iPhone? Apple's Safari does not support the Web Share Target API — the technology that allows a web app to receive shares from other apps. This is a Safari limitation, not a Dokitscript one. Chrome and Edge on Android fully support it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, completely free. The app is the same as the website — installing it just gives you a shortcut on your home screen and enables the share feature on Android. The free plan gives you 5 transcriptions per month at no cost.
Transcription requires an internet connection — audio has to be downloaded and processed on our servers. The app itself opens instantly, but you need to be online to transcribe.
Minimal. The PWA only stores the app shell and cached assets — a few kilobytes. No video files are ever stored on your device; everything is processed on our servers.
Yes — on Android, you can share from TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube. Dokitscript automatically detects which platform the URL belongs to and sets up the transcription accordingly.
Just like any app — press and hold the icon on your home screen, then tap Remove or Uninstall. On Android, you can also go to Chrome settings → Site settings → Dokitscript → Remove.
