Once published, the APK can be installed by opening the file on Android. Successive versions share the same package ID and signature: installing the newer build over the previous one preserves application data.

- **Declared minimum: Android 8.0 / API 26.** Validated on an Android 16 / API 36 emulator; other configurations still need testing.
- **Approximately 592 MiB per APK**, including ARM64, 32-bit ARM and x86_64 architectures.
- **Development Preview:** it does not replace Android or provide cellular calls/SMS. Android media import remains to be ported.
- **Linux desktop:** a separate development environment, with no ready-to-install public distribution yet. This simulator runs Gaia; it does not emulate all phone hardware.
APKs will be attached to Releases, keeping binaries out of Git history. Tags for these historical builds will identify their downloads; they will not yet contain their complete build sources.
