We've Got An App For That!



I've just created an Android App for this blog. You can download it here:




Alternative Downloads

USB Computer Download (Advanced)

Step 1: Prepare your Android phone to download your app by opening Settings > Applications and check the checkbox for Unknown Sources.


Step 3: Connect your computer to your phone and transfer the file over USB.

Barcode Download

Step 1: Prepare your Android phone to download your app by opening Settings > Applications and check the checkbox for Unknown Sources.

Step 2: Using your Android phone, get your barcode reader app and scan the QR Code on the left. Don't have a bar code reader app? Download this one.

Step 3: Open the url and download the APK app file. Then click the downloaded app file to install. If you've done step 1 correctly it should install successfully.

Having Trouble?

How do I prepare my phone to download?

Please view this Youtube video for a demonstration of how to prepare your phone to download an app. It's quite straightforward and can take less than a minute.

My phone doesn't have the Unknown Sources option?

Some phone providers such as AT&T do not allow you to install third party applications which would include apps like the one you have just made. To see if there are any alternatives methods, try a google search for ways to install third party apps on your specific phone model.
