Common Installation Issues
Most download problems stem from security settings or insufficient storage space. Here's how to resolve the most frequent issues.
"Installation Blocked" Error (Android)
Your phone's security settings are preventing APK installation. Go to Settings > Security > Unknown Sources and enable it. Some newer Android versions require per-app permission: Settings > Apps > Special Access > Install Unknown Apps > Select your browser > Allow.
"Not Enough Storage" Error
The app requires 100MB free space. Delete unused apps or move photos/videos to SD card or cloud storage. Go to Settings > Storage to see what's using space on your device.
App Won't Open After Installation
Clear your phone's cache (Settings > Storage > Cached Data > Clear). Restart your phone. If problem persists, uninstall and download fresh APK file—the previous download may have corrupted.
iOS "Add to Home Screen" Not Working
This feature only works in Safari browser. If you're using Chrome, Firefox or another browser, switch to Safari. Make sure you're tapping the Share button (bottom of screen, square with arrow) not the bookmark button.
