Solves #264 I added this guide but also made clear that it's in early beta. I think adding this (although it seems to be in early beta) does give a big value to users.

I'm not sure I'd go as far as "early beta". It's more "proof of concept", in my view. "Beta" tends to mean there's effort being made in bringing about a release and then maintaining it. I don't see that happening.

Fair point. I think once this is on the website, some people will jump in and maybe try to bring it further. Thanks to nefarius, we now have a working and install-able version now, so it will be much more accessible. iOS is more of a proof of concept (headless server only) while android is accessible and to some extent works.

Is there something between beta and proof of concept?

Well, "alpha". But even that implies it's got some development effort behind it. I'd leave it at proof of concept until someone does step up to get involved.

Ok so let's change it to proof of concept or PoC for the button?

Ok. @pljones done.

after download, the apk needs to be installed. In my case: open list of downloads in chrome, klick on the filename of APK, confirm that I want to install.
