Android beta ยท v4

Get PhotoAlbum for Android

Same experience as the web โ€” plus scan QR codes with your camera, take a selfie for face-recognition matching, and get download-to-gallery straight into your phone's Photos.

Enable unknown sources

Android blocks third-party APKs by default. Open Settings โ†’ Apps & notifications โ†’ Special access โ†’ Install unknown apps, pick your browser, and toggle it on.

Tap the file

After the APK downloads, tap it in your notifications or in your Files app. Android may warn "This type of file can harm your device" โ€” that's standard for any APK not from the Play Store. Tap Install anyway.

Open PhotoAlbum

First launch shows the home screen. Tap Create account for a persistent guest login, or Enter code if the photographer just gave you an 8-character code.

Grant permissions

For the QR scanner and selfie face-recognition, grant Camerawhen asked. For saving photos to your gallery, grant Photos & media.

Debug build. This is a debug APK โ€” larger than a release build and slower to launch. Fine for testing; if you want a smaller signed release, say the word.
