# Add a ServiceNow instance to ServiceNow mobile apps

Learn how to access an instance using a ServiceNow mobile app.

## Before you begin

Role required: user

## About this task

After you add ServiceNow mobile apps to your mobile device, you must connect them to the web-based UI instance that you work with. When working with the Now Mobile app and the Mobile Agent, you must add the same instance to both apps.

**Note:** For more information about working with more than one instance on your mobile device, see [Working with multiple ServiceNow instances on a single mobile device](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/mobile/instance-multiple.md).

If you download the mobile app from an enterprise mobility management \(EMM\) suite, enter your user credentials as prompted. For more details on EMM, see [Enterprise mobility management \(EMM\)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/mobile/enterprise-mobility-management.md). If you didn't download the mobile app from an EMM suite, follow the steps in this topic.

## Procedure

1.  Tap the icon for one of the ServiceNow mobile apps.

    The mobile instance login screen displays.

    \[Omitted image "log-in-screen.png"\] Alt text: The mobile instance log in screen.

2.  In the instance address field, enter the instance address in one of two ways.

</table>    **Note:** For both the Now Mobile app and Mobile Agent app, there's an option to test with a demo account, where you can select a role that matches the demo you would like to see. For more information, see [Now Mobile app demo](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/employee-service-management/sg-mobile-demo.md) and [Mobile Agent app demo](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/mobile/sg-agent-demo.md).

3.   Enter a nickname for this instance to help you easily locate changes you make within the instance.

4.  Tap **Save and Login**.

    The mobile app login screen displays.

    \[Omitted image "mobile-app-login.png"\] Alt text: Mobile app login screen.

5.  Enter your **User name** and **Password** and then tap **Log in**.

    The mobile app landing page displays and you can start your work.
