Our Google Play App is currently suspended. For the fully uncensored version, here's a step-by-step guide on how to install this app manually:

### 1. Enable Android Settings Permissions

* Open the **Settings** app and tap **Apps** or **Apps & Notifications**
* Tap **Special access**, or **Special app access** on some Android devices.
* Tap **Install unknown apps**.
* Tap **Chrome** (if downloading via our website) or **Gmail** (if we sent you the APK file)
* Switch the toggle next to **Allow from this source** so it turns on.

The easiest way to install an APK file on your Android is to download the file using the default browser, Chrome or Gmail. Other browsers definetly work, just make sure to enable the permissions listed out in step 1.

* Once you've clicked on the APK file to download, accept any prompts about the file being potentially "Harmful" - Click **Download anyway** or **OK**.
* After the file has downloaded, click Open to install the app. If this prompt disappears too quickly, you can also find this download in your Downloads or Files Manager.&#x20;
* Once the App is installed, click Open to start chatting! It will be automatically added to your home screen.

### TLDR:

* Then, download the APK file and open it through the app you granted permission to. Install it normally.
