Get Viral
The apps aren’t in the stores yet. Rather than show you a store button that goes nowhere, here is what works today.
- Most of Viral runs right here in your browser — read and post, take a side on today’s motion, argue it in the room, join communities and events.
- If you already have a build installed, every
viral://link on this site opens it.
Android — install directly
The signed Android build, straight from us. Version 1.0.0 (build 107), 201 MB, needs Android 9.0 or newer.
Download the APK (201 MB)Installing it
- Tap the download above and open the file when it finishes.
- Android will ask whether to allow installs from this source — this is the normal prompt for any app that does not come from the Play Store. Allow it, then confirm the install.
- You can turn that permission back off afterwards.

One thing worth knowing
Google re-signs apps distributed through the Play Store with its own key, so this build and a future Play install are not the same signature and Android will not update one into the other. If you install this now and later want the Play version, uninstall this one first — which also clears its local data, so you would sign in again.
