Do not install this version: its APK lacks the microphone permission, so voice does not work. Use android-v0.1.5, which installs over it.

Beta. Openlive for Android 0.1.4.

What is in it

  • The Android app is out as a beta, installed by sideloading the APK from the GitHub Releases
    (android-v0.1.4); it is not on the Play Store. Android 7 or later, arm64 and armv7.
  • Add servers by address, QR code or invite link, and keep several; sign in through the system
    browser.
  • Spaces, rooms and text chat with mentions, edit and delete; the live streams of a room with
    quality, queue and landscape full screen.
  • Voice with photos and cameras, push-to-talk, per-person volume and moderation; voice keeps
    running in the background with the screen locked, from a notification with Mute and Leave.
  • Sound cues, toasts and a summary of what happened while you were away.
  • Profile (name, photo) and personal settings.

Install

  1. Download openlive-0.1.4-android.apk on the phone (or send it there).
  2. Open it. Android asks to allow installing apps from that source (Settings, Apps, Special access,
    Install unknown apps): allow it for the app you opened the file from.
  3. Google Play Protect may warn that the app is from an unknown developer: choose "Install anyway".
  4. Open Openlive and add your server with the invite link its admin gave you.

Updates install over the old version (same signing key) and keep your data.
