Installation from Github
To install QUIK from GitHub, please follow these steps:
-
Navigate to the home page of this project, and scroll down until you see a button that says "Get it on GitHub". Click this button to be taken to the releases page.
-
Look through the releases to find the one with the "Latest" label.
Under this release, you will find a link to a file with a '.apk' file extension. Tap on this link to download the file, and wait for the download to complete.
-
Open the file. If your web browser is not permitted to install applications, you will get a system dialog that tells you so.
If you see this, tap the settings link in the dialog to be taken to the settings page for the app. Flip the switch to allow your browser to install applications.
-
Once the switch is flipped (or immediately upon opening the file), you will be presented with a system dialog asking if you wish to install QUIK. Tap on 'Yes' or 'Install', whichever is present. QUIK should now install and will shortly be ready for your first run of the app.
-
If, when opening QUIK, you are greeted with this screen:
You will need to allow restricted settings. To do so, navigate to the system settings page for QUIK, tap the 3 dots in the top right of the screen, and tap
Enable Restricted Settings. Enter your password, or use the screen lock, and then proceed with Initial Setup.
To keep QUIK up to date and make use of the latest features, you will need to manually and periodically check the releases page here on GitHub, and if a new version is available, install it using the above steps.
For this reason, we recommend using an application like Obtanium to automatically check for and install updates to QUIK.
