Install

Three steps. Sideload in under a minute.

  1. Allow installs from this source
    Open the APK in your file manager or browser. Android asks you to allow your file manager to install unknown apps — toggle the permission and continue.
  2. Tap "Install"
    The installer verifies the APK signature (v2 + v3) against the release keystore, then unpacks ~4.61 MB of native libraries and WebView assets to your device.
  3. Open Pulse
    Pulse appears in your launcher. The first launch starts a 14-day trial. Notes live in a local database on your device — nothing is uploaded.
