App does NOT work!! (MacBook desktop) Purchased this to help streamline my online-based Asana projects with my MacBook’s desktop. First off, the app has NEVER OPENED, let alone worked, on my MacBook, despite multiple attempts, workarounds, forum research, etc. Secondly, despite two attempts to communicate directly with the AppSana developers to problem solve using their app.

Once Asana becomes a major part of your workflow, you need to check it many times throughout the day. It can be frustrating to have to switch between browser tabs or reopen windows every time you want to see what’s new in your Asana Inbox.

Asana doesn’t make a native desktop app for Windows, but with some clever McGyver-ing we can make an Asana app that lives right in your Windows 10 taskbar. Here are four methods to turn the web app into a Windows desktop app.

The first method is for users of the Chrome browser, and it utilizes an extension called Applicationize. The second is for users of the Microsoft Edge browser, which has the capability to turn websites into apps. The third uses a free app called Nativefier and is a little more complicated than just downloading a program, but it’s worth the effort if you’re not using Chrome. The fourth method is a utility called Web2Desk that seems to bundle Nativefier automatically and creates an app you can actually install on Windows.

Method 1: How to use Applicationize to create an Asana desktop app

1. Create Chrome extension using Applicationize. Add https://app.asana.com to the field for Web App URL.
2. Click on advanced options. Add a custom icon and you can name the app “Asana.” For “Would you like external links to open internally as popups?” toggle to Yes.
3. Click the button “Generate & Download Chrome Extension.”
4. Turn on Developer Mode in Chrome. Copy & paste the following into your Chrome toolbar:chrome://extensions Then in the top right corner, toggle Developer Mode on. After doing this, you MUST restart Chrome so it takes effect. (Developer mode can be switched off after the extension is installed and it will continue to work.)
5. Install the extension. Drag and drop the Chrome Extension to the Extensions page to install it. Make sure you drag the file from the Windows Explorer and not from the Chrome downloads bar (which won’t work).
6. Pin your new app to the taskbar. This is optional but recommended for easy access! The Asana web app is now available via the Chrome app launcher. Pin it to the system taskbar.

Method 2: How to use Microsoft Edge to create an Asana desktop app

1. Navigate to https://app.asana.com using the Microsoft Edge browser.
2. Click on the ellipsis “more” button in the top right corner of the browser and select “Apps > Install”
3. Name the app “Asana.”
4. A shortcut for the app will be created on your desktop and Start menu. If you want the app shortcut on the Taskbar, open the Start menu, go to the app, and then right-click on it and choose “More > Pin to taskbar”

Method 3: How to use Nativefier to create an Asana desktop app

1. Download Node.js®. This is required for Nativefier to work. Click on the Windows Installer link to download and then install. Node.js is a JavaScript runtime used by programmers to build scalable network applications. If that doesn’t mean anything to you, stop thinking and just do it. You can just use the default settings.
2. Restart your PC.
3. Open the Node.js command prompt and install Nativefier. Copy & paste the following to install and press enter: npm install nativefier -g If you need more help, visit Getting Started with Nativefier.
4. Create wrapper for Asana web app. Once Nativefier is installed, copy & paste the following into the Node.js command prompt and press enter: nativefier --name 'Asana' 'https://app.asana.com'
5. Pin your new app to the taskbar. This is optional but recommended for easy access!

This method doesn’t seem to currently work with OAuth. This means if your Asana Premium administrator enforces logins through Google, you won’t be able to use this. This could also cause issues with the attachment functionality of Asana, in which case you might need to use Asana in your browser temporarily.

Method 4: How to use Web2Desk to create an Asana desktop app

1. Create App using Web2Desk. Add https://app.asana.com to the field for website URL, and name the app “Asana.” We also recommend uploading a custom icon so that the icon doesn’t appear blurry at certain sizes. Adding an email address is mandatory, but you will still be able to download the app regardless of the email you enter.
2. Click the button “Create now” and then download the zip file containing your Asana app for Windows on the next screen. We found that if loading the next page gets stuck, just reload the page after a few seconds.
3. Unzip the file and install the extension.
4. Pin your new app to the taskbar. This is optional but recommended for easy access!

There you go…a fancy desktop app for Asana!

If you’re a Mac user, make sure you check out our article on turning Asana into a native Mac app!

If you’re like me, you might have thought, “I really wish I didn’t have to open a browser or switch browser windows every time I want to check Asana.” I hoped Asana, Inc. would make a native Mac app so I didn’t have to deal with this, but it wasn’t on their radar.

Fortunately, I discovered an incredible free piece of software called Fluid. Fluid basically turns web apps into native Mac apps that you can put right in your dock. This was important for me because as Asana became a major part of my workflow, I wanted it to behave like Things, which has been one of my favorite productivity apps for non-work tasks.

The process is simple. Download and install Fluid and when it asks for the URL of the web app, just copy and paste the link of your “My Tasks” Asana page. Fluid does the rest to create an app that you can place in your dock for all your productivity pleasure. It also works great for other web apps, like Google Analytics or Spotify.

Pro Tip: I like my dock and desktop to look nice, so I changed the icon of the resulting Asana app so that it looks like an Asana icon. Here’s how to do it:

1. Download a 512×512 pixel or larger Asana (or generic productivity) .png like this one: Download
2. Right-click the .png you downloaded and select “Get Info.” Click on the icon in the top left of the info window so it gets a blue highlight. Press “CMD + C” to copy. (Note: If you only see a generic .png logo instead of the icon you want to copy, open the .png in Preview, press “CMD + A” to highlight everything and then press “CMD + C” to copy)
3. Right-click the Asana app and select “Get Info.” Click the icon so there’s a blue highlight, and press “CMD + V” to paste.

There you have it! A beautiful logo on your app that you can stick in your dock.

If you integrate Asana with other platforms (like Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, Harvest, etc.), you may need to go into the preferences and whitelist a few URLs so Fluid knows it’s OK to visit those sites as well. So as an example, if your organization tracks time using Harvest (save 50% off your first month using coupon code ASANATRAINING) then do the following:

1. Click on your newly created Asana “app” and then click on the name of the app in the toolbar.
2. Go to “Preferences” and then “Whitelist.”
3. Add the following URLs for the services you plan to use (including asterisks):
   • *google.com* (Log in through Google)
   • *harvestapp.com* and *getharvest.com* (Harvest time-tracking)
   • *box.com* (Box file-sharing)
   • *dropbox.com* (Dropbox file-sharing)

If Asana says that your browser isn’t compatible when using Fluid, you need to update your “User Agent” (i.e. the message that Fluid tells Asana about what kind of browser you’re using). Just head to the main menu of your Fluid app (left of “File”) and select “User Agent > Other…”

Then you can put in a custom User Agent, such as: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/87.0.4280.67 Safari/537.36(You can also look up and use the actual User Agent of your normal browser.)
