Install in four steps

  1. On your iPhone or iPad, open this page in Safari and tap Get the iPhone app.
  2. Wait a few seconds while the app opens. Keep the signal on for a minute the first time so it can save its offline copy.
  3. Tap the Share button at the bottom of Safari (top right on iPad), scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen, then Add.
  4. Open LiftPlan from your Home Screen. The two sling tension calculators work straight away.

Unlock every planner and calculator

A subscription or free trial unlocks the side boom and forklift planners, all sling arrangements, crane mats and load securing in the app. The easy way: in the app open Account and sign in with your website email and password, once. The app then fetches your licence by itself whenever it opens with signal, including after your trial, your payment and each renewal. Nothing to copy.

Prefer not to sign in? Copy your app licence key from the Account page of the website, then in the app open Account, paste it and tap Activate. Either way, the first unlock needs signal so the app can download the full tools; after that everything works offline. See pricing.

Works offline

Calculations, reports and saved projects stay on the device, so the app works on remote sites with no signal. Reports print through the iPhone's share and print options, which also let you save a PDF. Use Export backup under Account to keep a copy of your projects: removing the app from the Home Screen also removes the projects saved in it.

Updates

There is nothing to download. When the app is opened with signal it fetches the latest version in the background and uses it the next time you open it.

Good to know

  • Use the Home Screen icon rather than a Safari tab. iOS can clear data that websites keep in Safari tabs after a few weeks without use, but it keeps the data of apps added to the Home Screen.
  • On iOS 16.4 or newer you can also add the app from Chrome or Edge, using the same Share button.
  • Using Android? Get the Android app.

LiftPlan Field supports competent lift planning. It does not replace the manufacturer's data, the applicable standards or the judgement of a competent person.
