“Where do I download the app?” That question arrives almost every day. The answer is pleasantly short: there is nothing to download.
FatedWays lives in your browser, and its icon can sit on your phone's home screen like any other app. You tap it and go straight into the Game of the Soul — no address, no digging through browser history, and no hunting for that link which was “somewhere on Facebook”.
It takes about fifteen seconds. That is roughly how long it takes to find the right button — and phones love to hide their most useful functions exactly where nobody would look for them. So here is everything step by step, including what to do when the button isn't there.
When you tap the new icon, FatedWays will most likely ask you to log in — even if you were logged in inside the browser a minute earlier. This is normal and works the same way on every phone: an app on the home screen keeps its data separately from Safari and Chrome.
You log in once through the icon, and from then on it remembers. The next times take you straight into the game.
1. Open fatedways.com in Safari.
2. At the bottom centre, tap the share button — the square with an arrow pointing up.
3. Slide the menu up and find “Add to Home Screen”.
4. If you see a switch called “Open as Web App”, leave it on. That is what makes the app open full screen.
5. If you like, shorten the name “FatedWays” — about twelve characters fit under the icon.
6. Tap “Add” at the top right.
The icon is now on your home screen. If the phone put it on the last page, hold your finger on it and move it wherever suits you.
1. Open fatedways.com in Chrome.
2. Tap the share button to the right of the address bar.
3. Choose “Add to Home Screen”.
4. Confirm the name and tap “Add”.
On iPhone every browser actually runs on Safari underneath, so the result is the same.
1. Open fatedways.com in Chrome.
2. Tap the three dots at the top right.
3. Look for “Install app”, “Add to Home screen” or “Create shortcut”. The wording differs by phone and Chrome version — all three lead to the same place.
4. Tap “Install” or “Add”.
On some phones Chrome offers it by itself with a bar at the bottom of the screen. If you see it, accept and you skip the menu.
1. Open fatedways.com in Samsung Internet.
2. Tap the three lines at the bottom right.
3. Choose “Add page to” and then “Home screen”.
On iPad the steps are the same as in Safari on iPhone — the share button is at the top right.
On a computer with Chrome or Edge, open fatedways.com and look for the small install icon at the right of the address bar. It is also in the three-dot menu. After that FatedWays opens in its own window, with no bars and no tabs.
On a Mac with Safari, open the page and from the File menu choose “Add to Dock”.
When you tap a link inside Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, Viber or TikTok, the page opens in that app's own internal browser. It looks like a normal browser, and half of its menu is missing — including precisely the button you are looking for.
So if you arrived here through a social network, first get the page out:
In Facebook and Instagram — the three dots at the top right, then “Open in browser” or “Open in Safari”.
In Messenger — the three dots at the bottom right, same option.
In Viber — the three dots at the top, then “Open in browser”.
If the menu resists, there is a way round it: hold your finger on the address at the top, copy it, open Safari or Chrome and paste it there.
This is one of those cases where the problem sits in the app rather than in you. Facebook has once again decided to show you half the internet and half the menu.
Open the icon and look at the top of the screen. If there is no address bar and the page fills the whole screen — done, it is working as an app.
If the address bar with fatedways.com is sitting at the top, what you got is an ordinary shortcut to the browser. It works, just less comfortably. Delete the icon and repeat the steps — on iPhone check the “Open as Web App” switch, and on Android choose “Install app” rather than “Create shortcut”.
Go through these four things in order. One of them almost always settles it.
First: check that you are in the real Safari or Chrome, rather than inside a social network's internal browser.
Second: wait for the page to finish loading and only then open the menu. On a half-loaded page the option is sometimes missing.
Third: leave Incognito or Private Browsing mode. Adding is switched off there.
Fourth: the address should be fatedways.com, rather than some redirect link with a long tail of characters after it.
The change looks small and feels real day to day: one tap instead of a search, its own icon, a full screen with no bars, and your account stays open.
What stays the same is that FatedWays works over the internet — the readings are calculated on the server and kept in your account, so on a weak connection the page will wait.
And one more thing worth knowing in advance: there are no pop-up notifications. The icon sits and waits. You come in when you decide to.
Hold your finger on it and choose “Remove App” or “Delete”. Your account, your readings and the Book of the Soul stay untouched — they live in your account rather than in the icon. You can add it again whenever you want.
The icon is in front of you every day, and that is exactly the point. One question rarely ends with one answer. Sometimes the next part comes tomorrow, sometimes through a dream, sometimes through a card, and sometimes through that small coincidence that makes you say: “All right, I've taken the hint.”
You might open it with a concrete question. Or the reason might be something that has been turning up in front of you for a while — the same hour, repeating figures, a name, a dream or a strange coincidence. The most interesting threads often start from small signs like these. You come in with your question and follow it through Tarot, astrology, Karma, the Palm, Dreams and the other rooms, until the picture becomes clearer.

If you don't yet know how the moves are made, what the 64 fields mean and why the question changes along with you, read How to play. And for the idea it all started from, see About the game.
There isn't, and there is no need for one. FatedWays runs in the browser and gets added to the home screen with its own icon, so it opens and looks like an app. That saves you the download, the storage space and the updates — what you open is always the current version.
Practically none. What sits on the screen is an icon; the game itself loads from the site.
The most common reason is that the page is open inside the internal browser of Facebook, Instagram or Viber. Open it in Safari or Chrome and the option appears. Also check that the page has finished loading and that you are not in private mode.
No. The first time you open the icon you will log in once — an app on the home screen keeps its data separately from the browser, so a login in Safari or Chrome doesn't carry over. After that it remembers and lets you straight in.
The readings are calculated on the server and kept in your account, so a connection is needed. On a weak network the page will load slowly.
There are no pop-up notifications. The game waits for you to open it.
