# Amal Invest Help Center | Amal Invest Help

Everything you need to go from a fresh account to an invested, automatically screened portfolio.

If you are brand new, read the three **Getting Started** articles in order, then jump to the section for the broker you chose. Each article takes a few minutes and ends where the next begins.

Already set up and looking for something specific? Pick a category below, or use the sidebar.

Looking for investing basics instead?

This help center covers the app itself. For the _why_ of halal investing, funds, zakat, and screening rules, read the [halal investing guides](https://amalinvest.com/halal-investing).

## Using Amal on your phone

Amal Invest is a web app that installs like a native one. On a phone the navigation moves to the bottom of the screen, with **Overview**, **Funds**, **Activity**, and a **More** sheet that holds settings, Expert mode, and the broker switch.

To add it to your home screen, open **More** and tap **Install app**. It then opens full screen without the browser bar.
