# Install Android & iOS app

### How to install your iOS and Android app?

Once your app is live on the app stores, you and your customers can easily download and install it on any supported device.

#### Installing the Android app

* Open the Google Play Store on your Android device.
* Search for your app by its name.
* Tap Install to download the app.
* Once installed, tap Open to launch it.

You can also share the Play Store link directly with your users to make downloading easier.
{% endhint %}

#### Installing the iOS app

1. Open the App Store on your iPhone or iPad.
2. Search for your app by its name.
3. Tap Get and then Install to download the app.
4. Once installed, tap Open to launch it.

{% hint style="warning" %}
To install an app on an iPad, it must be published specifically for iPad. If it hasn’t been published for iPad, it cannot be installed on one.
{% endhint %}

#### For testing or private apps

If your app isn’t live on the store and you’re testing it:

* For [**Android**](https://docs.appmysite.com/app/preview/test-apk-on-real-device), use the AAB or APK file to install manually.
* For [**iOS**](https://docs.appmysite.com/app/preview/test-ipa-on-real-device), use TestFlight if you’re distributing your app for testing.
