This is the same app Google Play delivers, signed by Google Play. When the app opens to everyone on Google Play, installing it from there updates this copy in place: no need to uninstall, and your pairing and settings stay.

Install it

  1. Download. On your phone, tap Download the app above. If Chrome asks whether to keep the file, tap Download anyway.
  2. Open the file. When the download finishes, tap Open. Missed it? Open the Files app, then Downloads, and tap N6YYO-Remote-Base-0.3.40.apk.
  3. Allow installs from your browser, once. The first time, Android says your phone is not allowed to install unknown apps from this source. Tap Settings, turn on Allow from this source, then tap back. (Android calls this setting Install unknown apps; it is for your browser only, and you can turn it off again after installing.)
  4. Install. Tap Install. If Google Play Protect asks to scan the app, let it. When it is done, tap Open.

Pair it with your station

  1. On the station's computer, open the N6YYO Remote Base page and click Pair a phone at the top right. A code appears. It lasts 10 minutes; New code makes another.
  2. In the app, tap Scan your station's code and point the phone at the code. The app signs itself in and connects. From then on it connects by itself, from anywhere.

No code at hand? On the app's first screen, enter the station's address, your callsign and your password instead.

Updates

New versions come from this page. When one is out, the app tells you, and Settings > Versions > Check for updates finds it any time. Tap Update: this page opens. Download and install the new file over the old one, the same way as the first time. Your pairing and settings stay.
