## Installation
The minimum supported Android version is 5.0 Lollipop. There are two ways to install:

1. Via the Google Play Store. While in alpha, it will not show in the Play Store unless you sign up [here](https://lbry.io/android-alpha).
1. Direct APK install available at [http://build.lbry.io/android/latest.apk](http://build.lbry.io/android/latest.apk). You will need to enable installation from third-party sources on your device in order to install from this source.

## Usage
The app can be launched by opening **LBRY Browser** from the device's app drawer or via the shortcut on the homescreen if that was created upon install.

## Running from Source
The app is built from source via [Buildozer](https://github.com/kivy/buildozer). After cloning the repository, copy `buildozer.spec.sample` to `buildozer.spec` and modify this file as necessary for your environment. Please see [BUILD.md](BUILD.md) for detailed build instructions.
