Get walkr on Android

walkr is not on the Play Store. It installs straight from this page, so the steps below are the whole process.

Download walkr

Version 0.1.0 · 40.0 MB · Android 7 or newer

  1. 1Tap the button on your Android phone. Chrome may warn that this kind of file can harm your device. That warning appears for every app installed outside the Play Store; tap Download anyway.
  2. 2Open the downloaded file. Android asks whether your browser may install apps. Allow it, install walkr, and you can switch that permission off again afterwards.
  3. 3Open walkr and allow physical activity. The phone registers itself and starts counting. Add your payout address in Settings so you can claim.

Only ever install walkr from walkr.world. Android will refuse any later update that is not signed with the same key as this one, so once it is installed a tampered copy cannot replace it. To check this file before installing, compare its SHA-256 below with what your computer reports.
