# Using on Tablet & Mobile Devices

You can access Vagon from tablets and mobile devices in addition to laptops and desktops. The experience depends on the device, browser, network quality, and the application you are running, but for many workflows a tablet is enough.

## Recommended Usage

Mobile and tablet access works best for:

* Reviewing files or lightweight applications.
* Quick checks on an existing computer.
* Touch-friendly workflows.

For keyboard-heavy, mouse-heavy, or GPU-intensive work, use a desktop browser or the Vagon Desktop Application.

## Add Vagon to Your Home Screen

For the smoothest mobile experience, add Vagon to your device home screen so it opens like a native app.

**1. Go to** [**app.vagon.io**](https://app.vagon.io) **and open the share menu, then tap the option to add Vagon to your home screen.**

**3. The Vagon icon appears on your home screen. From now on you can launch Vagon directly from your tablet or mobile device.**

## File Transfers

If you need to move files from a mobile or tablet device, use Vagon Files or the browser upload flow when available.
