Use Enjoy in a web browser

The web app shows the same Enjoy you know from your computer, in a browser tab. Your projects stay on your computer, and the browser connects to it.

Before you start

  • You need the Unlimited plan. See The Unlimited plan.
  • Your computer is on, online, and running Enjoy, signed in to your account.

Steps

  1. Go to app.enjoy.dev

    Open it in any web browser. If you aren’t signed in, it shows Connect this browser with boxes for a code. Signing in first is optional.

  2. Get a code from your computer

    If you’re signed in, the browser finds your computer and asks it to show a code, and the Connect a personal device window opens there on its own. If you aren’t signed in, or the window doesn’t open, go to your computer, select the circle with your initial in the top-right corner, then choose Connect a personal device under My computers.

  6. Start working

    The browser says it’s connected and opens your projects.

Choose this browser’s access

When approving the browser on your computer, choose Full access or Limited. Full lets you approve agents’ requests and change their permission modes from the browser. On a shared or work computer, pick Limited. You can change the level later in My computers on the computer the browser connects to. See Manage your devices.

Good to know

  • If the browser wasn’t signed in, approving it also signs it in to your account.
  • The browser remembers the connection. Next time you open app.enjoy.dev, it reconnects on its own. If you clear this browser’s data for app.enjoy.dev, connect it again with a new code.
  • With more than one computer, the browser may ask you to Pick a computer. Computers that are on say Online · Connect this browser, and ones that are off say Offline · Open Enjoy on it first. Later, switch computers with the menu in the top-left corner. Each computer needs its own code the first time.
  • The browser appears on your computer in My computers under Personal devices, with a name such as Chrome on Mac.
  • To stop using this browser, select your initial in the top-right corner, then Disconnect this browser beside your email. The browser then asks for a code again. It stays on your computer’s list until you also disconnect it in My computers on the computer. See Rename or disconnect your devices.
  • Teammates use the web app with their own accounts, through an invite. See Join someone else’s computer.
