Install WhinPadel on your phone and turn on alerts

Two minutes, nothing to download from a store: the website saves itself as an app, keeps you signed in, and tells you your times, your court changes and the scores you have to confirm.

WhinPadel is not on the App Store or Google Play, and it does not need to be: it is a website that installs like an app. Once it is saved on your home screen it opens full screen, keeps you signed in, and can send you alerts even when you do not have it open.

WhinPadel is in Spanish, so its buttons are quoted here as you will read them on screen, with the English meaning in parentheses the first time: “Activar avisos en este dispositivo” (Turn on alerts on this device). Your phone's own menus are different — those come out in whatever language your phone is set to, so they are given here in English.

Sign in first (your phone number and a code, no passwords). Whatever you install after that already has your session in it.

On iPhone (Safari)

1
Open whinpadel.com in Safari
It has to be Safari: Chrome, or the browser inside Instagram or WhatsApp, will not let you install. If you opened a link from WhatsApp, tap the three dots and choose “Open in Safari”.
2
Tap Share
The square with the arrow pointing up, at the bottom centre of the screen.
3
Choose “Add to Home Screen”
Scroll down the list until you see it. Confirm with “Add”, top right.
4
Open WhinPadel from the new icon
From now on always go in that way. On iPhone, alerts only work when the site is opened from that icon, not from Safari.
5
Turn on alerts
Tap the bell, top right, and press “Activar avisos en este dispositivo” (Turn on alerts on this device). The iPhone will ask whether you allow notifications: say yes.

iPhone needs iOS 16.4 or newer to receive alerts. If the button does not appear when you tap the bell, update the phone under Settings → General → Software Update.

On Android (Chrome)

1
Open whinpadel.com in Chrome
If a bar shows up at the bottom saying “Add WhinPadel to Home screen”, tap it and you are done. If not:
2
Tap the three dots
Top right of the browser.
3
Choose “Install app” or “Add to Home screen”
Depending on the version of Chrome it goes by one name or the other. Confirm.
4
Turn on alerts
Open WhinPadel from the new icon, tap the bell top right and press “Activar avisos en este dispositivo”. Allow notifications when Android asks.

On a computer

On desktop Chrome, Edge or Firefox there is nothing to install to get alerts: go in, tap the bell and press “Activar avisos en este dispositivo”. If you want it as a separate program, Chrome and Edge have an install icon at the right end of the address bar.

What it will tell you

Your times when the club publishes the schedule, and any change of hour or court.
When your partner or the club confirm your registration, and when the payment is on record.
When the other pair enters the score of a match you played, so you can confirm it or say that is not how it went. If nobody answers within 24 hours, it stands.
The results that already count in your group and in the bracket.

If nothing arrives

Check that you opened WhinPadel from the home screen icon and not from the browser (on iPhone it is compulsory).
Tap the bell: if it says “Avisos activos en este dispositivo” (Alerts on for this device), our side is fine. If it says they are blocked, allow them for whinpadel.com in your browser or phone settings.
Alerts are per device: if you turned them on on the computer, you have to turn them on again on the phone.
And even with no alerts at all, everything we send you stays in the bell: go in and it is there.
