Setup is fast: install, sign in with your Trailblazer profile, and start learning. The configuration choices below are about notifications and download behaviour, not access.
- Install the app
Search Trailhead GO in the iOS App Store or Google Play Store. The app is free with no in-app purchases. Both stores list Salesforce as the publisher; do not install lookalike clones from other publishers.
- Sign in with your Trailblazer profile
Tap Sign In, enter your Trailblazer credentials, complete MFA if enabled. The app syncs your profile, recent activity, and saved Trailmixes within seconds. New learners can create a Trailblazer account from inside the app via Sign Up.
- Pick a Trailmix or browse modules
The home feed shows recommended Trailmixes, recent modules, and progress on in-flight units. Tap any module to open the unit list. Tap a unit to start reading.
- Download modules for offline reading
On any module detail page, tap the download icon. The app caches text, images, and embedded videos. Quizzes work offline; answers submit when connectivity returns.
- Manage notifications and streaks
Settings, Notifications. Toggle daily streak reminders, badge earned alerts, and release announcements independently. Most users keep streak on and silence the rest.
Daily streak reminder, new badge alerts, Trailhead release announcements, recommended Trailmix push. Toggle independently under Settings.
Standard or high quality for embedded videos. High quality uses more storage; standard is fine for most learners.
Auto-track in-flight modules or only show modules you manually start. Default is auto-track, which feeds the recommendation engine.
VoiceOver and TalkBack support, dynamic text sizing, high-contrast mode. The app meets WCAG 2.1 AA standards.
- Hands-on challenges that require a sandbox cannot be completed in the app. The unit pauses; complete the challenge on a desktop browser, then come back.
- Streaks break on a single missed day. The grace period is timezone-aware to the device timezone, not the Trailblazer profile timezone, which catches travelers.
- Offline downloads use device storage. Large Trailmixes with many video-heavy modules can consume several gigabytes; clear unused downloads periodically.
- The app does not support content authoring or AppExchange browsing. Use the web for anything beyond consuming learning content.
- Push notifications require OS-level notification permission. If you toggled them off at the OS level, the in-app Settings page cannot re-enable them.
