Can I install it today?

The Companion app is in an internal preview (Alpha). There is no public store release yet. If you are not part of the preview, you cannot install it.
Preview versions are shared with invited testers only. Android previews go to invited testers and iOS previews go to an internal TestFlight group. Wear OS (smartwatch) work is still in progress. Home-screen widgets exist on Android only. If you are invited, use the invitation you received. Some parts of the app are still being built or have not been checked on real devices. Check the overview for the current state.

​
Sign in

You need a kombify account first. See Create an account.
1

Open the app

You see “Welcome to kombify” and a Sign in button.
2

Sign in on the hosted page

Choose Sign in. The hosted kombify login opens in your browser. Sign in or choose your account there.
3

Return to the app

The app finishes the sign-in. It shows “Completing sign-in…” for a moment.

​
Your first start

The first time you sign in on a device, a short setup asks “How do you want to start?”. You can choose:
  • All-in-1 Companion
  • AI
  • Homelab
  • Paperwork
You can also keep your current layout or skip. A voice step explains that you can dictate or hold a voice conversation. The app asks for your microphone only the first time you use it. The optional SpeechKit app adds a keyboard and an assistant for your whole phone. You do not need it to use Companion. A short introduction then shows your modules, the side panel, the composer and Settings. You can replay it in Settings any time.

​
Check that it worked

The start screen asks “How can I help you?” and shows your account in Settings under “Signed in as”.

​
Switch account or sign out

Open Settings and choose Switch account or Sign out. Unsent drafts are removed from the phone when you do.

​
If something goes wrong

  1. “Sign-in hasn’t finished yet”: if the sign-in page was closed, start it again. You can also choose Cancel or use another account.
  2. “Your session has ended”: sign in again.
  3. “Sign-in is unavailable right now”: try again later.
  4. “We couldn’t clear your saved sign-in”: try signing out again.
  5. Check your internet connection and try once more.
  6. Still stuck? See Sign-in problems and account basics.
