Installing the LeadFirst Windows Desktop App and pinning it to your taskbar will give you the fastest, easiest way to access the system in the future.

Update your browser

LeadFirst works in today’s most popular browsers, but the desktop app (Progressive Web App) is only available with Google Chrome and the newest version of Microsoft Edge. If you already have one of these browsers, skip to step 2.

Download and install the newest version of Google Chrome from https://www.google.com/chrome/
OR
Download and install the newest version of Microsoft Edge from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge

IF you install a new browser, you may need to log back into LeadFirst Disciplines.

Go to https://leadfirst.ai/
Click LOGIN in the upper-right
At the login screen, enter your work email and the new password you created, and sign in.

Install the Windows desktop app

Go to the three-bar menu in the upper-left > open Administration > click Install Desktop App > when prompted by your browser, click Install.

Important:

IF you do not see the option to Install Desktop App, you likely need to update your browser. Go back to step one to make sure you are using Chrome or the newest version of Microsoft Edge.

We recommend that you pin the App to your taskbar. To do so, down in your Windows taskbar, right-click the LeadFirst icon > Pin to taskbar.

Install the Mac desktop app

Make sure you are using the latest version of Google Chrome
Click on the install icon in the Chrome address bar. This is typically a small + icon or a download icon.
Once installed, the app will show up on your desktop or in your Apps list, depending on your OS.

Turn on LeadFirst Notifications

Once the Windows App is installed, you should receive a prompt to allow notifications—we highly recommend enabling them.

With notifications enabled, you'll receive a desktop notification whenever you get a LeadFirst message. Clicking the notification will instantly open the app.

If you don’t see a prompt to allow notifications, you can enable them manually. Follow these steps for Chrome and Edge:

Manually Enabling Notifications in Chrome

Click the three-dot menu in the upper right of the Windows App.
Select App info.
In App info, turn on Notifications.

Note:

A few of our URLs will still refer to Six Disciplines, our recent name.

Edge - manually allow notifications

Click the three-dot menu in the upper right of the Windows app > select App permissions > open the Notifications dropdown menu > select Allow.
