Why isn’t PI on Google Play?

PI is published by its developer (SanmerApps) on GitHub and is not listed on Google Play or F-Droid.

Is PI safe?

PI is open source under the MIT license, and you should download it only from the official GitHub releases page linked below. The README is brief, so beyond listing supported Android versions and credits, no further details on permissions or specific installer behavior are given. PI comes straight from its developer rather than through Google Play, so it hasn’t gone through Google’s app review. As with any app, check the permissions it asks for and install it if you’re comfortable with them.

How to install

1. Tap the download button above: the APK file downloads straight to your phone.
2. When Android asks, allow your browser to install unknown apps.
3. Open the file and tap Install.
