Install the Android app

The Android app com.aoneahsan.smsapp ("SMS Mobile App") is installed as a signed APK from the Apps page, not from Google Play. Updates to the app's web layer arrive inside the app.

Obtain the APK #​

Download the APK from the Apps page. The page shows the current version and the file's SHA-256 checksum; compare the checksum with the file you downloaded before you install it. Do not use an APK from an unrelated website or message.

The current executable application ID is com.aoneahsan.smsapp. A future package migration would require a separately signed installation and coordinated documentation update.

Install #​

  1. Open the verified APK on the Android phone.
  2. If Android blocks the install, allow installs from the specific app you used to open the file.
  3. Complete installation, then remove that temporary install permission if you do not need it.
  4. Open SMSApp and confirm that it reaches the sign-in screen.

Android may refuse an update if the installed app was signed with a different key. Do not uninstall an existing copy until you understand what local state may be removed.

Next steps #​

Continue with Get started with SMSApp. Registration, contact sync, and sender enrollment are separate steps; installation alone does not authorize SMS dispatch.
