How to use the askmyGP app

To make using askmyGP more convenient for patients we have developed an ‘app’ that lets you keep askmyGP on your home screen.

Depending on your device, you can also choose to allow integration with your camera (for photos of symptoms), authentication (one less password to remember) and receive notifications (no more missed emails). n.b. apple does not currently permit notifications.

To install the app, please follow the instructions below.

Use your android device to go your GP Practice Website and log into askmyGP

1. Look for the menu icon (three bars)
2. Tap the menu icon and select ‘Enable Notifications’
3. Tap the menu icon (again) and select ‘Add to home screen’
4. Confirm when prompted – tap ‘Add’
