How to install (4 quick steps)
Because we're sideloading (not from Play Store yet), Android will ask for one extra permission. Total time: under 60 seconds.
1. Tap Download
Tap the big blue Download button below. The APK file (~84 MB) will start downloading to your phone.
2. Allow the download
Chrome will ask if you trust this file because it isn't from the Play Store yet (we're submitting in parallel). Tap "Download anyway".
3. Enable install from this source
Open the downloaded file. Android will ask for permission — tap Settings, toggle on "Allow from this source", then go back.
4. Install & open
Tap Install. In ~10 seconds the KA26 app icon will appear on your home screen. Open it and sign up with your phone.
Built by us. Safe to install.
KA26 is a registered Indian company. Our APK is signed with our developer key and contains the same code that runs on ka26.shop. The Chrome warning shows for every non-Play-Store APK — it doesn't mean the file is unsafe.
Common questions
Why is my browser warning me about this file?
Android Chrome warns about all APKs not downloaded from the Play Store — even from trusted sources. Our app is fully safe (we built it ourselves), and our Play Store submission is in review. Once Play Store approves us, we'll redirect this page to the official Play Store install.
Will I lose my data when the Play Store version comes out?
No. Your account is tied to your phone number, not the app. When Play Store goes live, install it from there, sign in with the same number, and everything (orders, addresses, reels) is right where you left it.
Is there an iOS app?
Coming soon. iOS users can use the website at ka26.shop — every feature works in mobile Safari, including push notifications (iOS 16.4+).
How big is the app?
Around 89 MB to download. After install it takes about 150 MB of phone storage — similar to most shopping apps.
Which Android versions are supported?
Android 7 (Nougat) and above. Tested on Samsung, Xiaomi, Realme, OnePlus, Vivo, and Oppo devices.
Ready to give it a try?
~60 seconds to install. Free forever. No card required to sign up.
