How to use LivsStyrker

Five steps to your first moment

1. Choose a specific moment

   Think of something you are pleased with, big or small. Tap “Find strengths” in “Moments”, and choose whether the moment is about yourself or one of your contacts.

2. Add a photo, if you like

   Choose a photo of the situation from your photos. The photo is optional, and the app sees only the photo you choose.

3. Give the moment a title

   Write a short headline for the story, for example “Clean-up day at work”.

4. Choose one to three strengths

   Tap “Add strength”, and choose the strengths you saw in the moment. The cards are grouped under the six virtues.

5. Write a reason

   Write why you chose each strength. A strength without a reason can feel like empty words, while a good reason makes the choice believable. Tap “Send” when you are done.

Make it a habit to write down good moments as they happen. Over time, “My top strengths” shows which strengths you use most.

Invites

You add people from “Contacts”. Choose “Invite from Contacts” to send the invite in a message or by email, or “Show my QR code” when you are together, and the other person scans the code with their camera. When they tap “Add”, you become contacts and can send strengths to each other.

If the other person does not have the app, the invite opens in the browser, where they can sign in and add you without downloading anything. To remove a contact, swipe it to the left in “Contacts” in the app, or tap “Remove” in the browser.

Use LivsStyrker in your browser

LivsStyrker works in the browser on Android, computers and iPhone, at livsstyrker.no/app, with everything the app can do. You sign in with a code by email or with Apple, and use the same account as in the app. If you signed in with Apple on iPhone, use the same button in the browser.

Android

Open livsstyrker.no/app in Chrome, tap the menu with three dots, and choose “Install app” or “Add to Home screen”. LivsStyrker then sits among your apps. If you use Samsung Internet, open the link in Chrome first.

iPhone

If your iPhone has iOS 26 or later, the app from the App Store is the best choice. Otherwise, open livsstyrker.no/app in Safari, tap the Share button and choose “Add to Home Screen”. Do this before you sign in, because LivsStyrker on the Home Screen does not keep the sign-in from Safari.

Computer

In Chrome and Edge, you can click “Install” in LivsStyrker to give it its own window. In other browsers, use it like any other web page.

Notifications

LivsStyrker asks about notifications at the end of the introduction, and you can turn them on later under “Settings”. Tap “Allow” when the browser asks. On Android, notifications arrive even when the browser is closed, and on a computer while the browser is open. On iPhone, notifications work only from LivsStyrker on the Home Screen, with iOS 16.4 or later. If you said no, turn notifications back on in the browser’s settings for livsstyrker.no.

Deleting a moment

Open the moment, tap the menu and choose “Delete moment”. The moment disappears together with its strengths, reasons and photo, and the count in “My top strengths” goes down again.

Deleting your account

Open “Settings” and choose “Delete account”. In the app, “Settings” is behind the gear under “My profile”. Your account, your moments and the photos you have uploaded are deleted for good. This cannot be undone.

Strengths you have sent to others stay with the people who received them, but without your name and without photos. The privacy policy explains what is stored and deleted.

Did you use the old app?

LivsStyrker 3.0 is rebuilt from the ground up. Accounts and moments from the old app have not been moved over, so everyone starts with a new account. Sign in with Apple or with your email address.
