Modified on Tue, 27 Feb at 9:26 AM

Akvo Flow app is only Android based and not available on Google Play store. To install the app online you use the browser of your device and your Flow instance url. You can also install the app to your device offline. Here you can find more on the steps you need to take.


Installing the app

  1. Open the browser on the device. The browser app might be called Internet or Browser, or it could otherwise be an specific browser name (i.e. Chrome, Firefox, etc)
  2. In the browser address bar, type the address of your Flow online space, and add ‘/app2’. For example, if your organisation is called ‘care’, this would usually be ‘care.akvoflow.org/app2’.
  3. Confirm. This will download the latest version of the Flow app directly. You will see the download icon in the notification bar at the top of the screen.
  4. When the download is complete, draw down the notification bar from the top of the screen. If the download succeeded, you will see flow-2.x.x.apk, download complete.
  5. Click on the notification, and click Install. Once the installation is complete you can open the app.
