You can also use PoolSketch in any current browser with no install.

Try this first

Once you are signed in, tap New design, then Describe your pool, and type one sentence about a pool. In about 3 seconds you have a full plan to edit and view in 3D. See AI pool design.

Why install it

• It opens full screen and works offline once you have signed in.
• Your phone is more willing to keep your designs when the app is on the home screen.
• Updates arrive by themselves. There is nothing to download from a store.

Store apps

We are preparing versions for the Apple App Store and Google Play. They will sign you in to the same account. Accounts are created and plans are managed on the PoolSketch website, so the store apps will not show prices or take payments. We will say so here when they are live.

Install and update questions

Do I need to install PoolSketch?

No. It works in your browser. Installing makes it open full screen from your home screen and lets it work offline once you have signed in.

How do I install PoolSketch on an iPhone or iPad?

Use Safari only. Open the app, tap Share, choose Add to Home Screen, then tap Add.

How do I install PoolSketch on Android?

In Chrome, tap Install if the prompt appears, or open the menu and choose Install app or Add to Home screen. In Samsung Internet, open the menu, choose Add page to, then Home screen.

How do I install PoolSketch on a computer?

In Chrome or Edge, click the install icon at the right end of the address bar, or open the menu and choose Install PoolSketch. On a Mac with Safari 17 or later, choose File, then Add to Dock. Firefox on a computer has no install: use Chrome or Edge, or bookmark it.

Is there an App Store or Google Play app?

Not yet. Store apps are coming and will sign in to the same account. Until then, install the web app as described above.

How do updates work?

The installed app checks for a new version each time it opens while you are online, downloads it in the background and uses it the next time you open or refresh it. There is nothing to do by hand. Your designs live on your device and are not lost by updates. Sign-in and billing are separate from the app version. With no signal it keeps working on the last version it downloaded. Store apps, when they arrive, will update through the App Store or Google Play.
