Get Arcade as an App

Same arcade, but as a real installed app — fullscreen, no browser bar, home-screen icon, works offline for saved games.

🤖 Download Android APK
🚀 FullscreenNo browser chrome — game cards take the whole viewport.
🏠 Home-screen iconTap the Arcade icon, you're in. Like any native app.
📡 Offline-friendlySaved games work without a connection.
🔔 Push-readyFuture feature: notifications when friends are playing.

🤖 Android (Chrome / Edge / Brave)

  1. Tap the big Install button above. Chrome's native install dialog pops up.
  2. Confirm. The Arcade icon appears on your home screen + app drawer.
  3. Launch from there — no address bar, looks/behaves like a native app.

Don't see the install button? Chrome unlocks installation after ~30 seconds of engagement. Browse a few games and try again — or use ⋮ → Install app from Chrome's menu directly.

📦 Android — Real APK file

The green Download Android APK button above grabs a freshly-built signed .apk from our latest GitHub release — built automatically by a CI workflow that wraps the live arcade as a Trusted Web Activity.

  1. Tap Download Android APK above on your phone.
  2. If Android asks: enable Install unknown apps for your browser (Settings → Apps → Special access → Install unknown apps).
  3. Tap the downloaded APK → Install.
  4. Open from your home screen — fullscreen Arcade, no browser chrome.

Each build uses a fresh signing key, so to update you'll need to uninstall the old version first. If the download link 404s, the workflow hasn't finished its first run — try again in 5–10 minutes, or fall back to PWA Builder with our URL pre-filled.

🍎 iPhone / iPad (Safari)

  1. Open this site in Safari (not Chrome — Apple only allows Safari to install web apps).
  2. Tap the Share button (square with up arrow at the bottom).
  3. Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen.
  4. Tap Add in the top-right.

After install, Arcade opens fullscreen from your home screen with no Safari UI — looks like a native iOS app.

💻 Desktop (Chrome / Edge / Brave)

  1. Look for the small install icon in your URL bar (right side, looks like a monitor with a down-arrow).
  2. Click it → Install.
  3. Arcade gets its own dock/taskbar icon and launches in a standalone window.

Or use the menu: ⋮ → Install Arcade… on Chrome/Edge.
