Tap Download for Android on your phone. If your browser asks whether to keep the file, choose Download or Download anyway.
Open the file
When the download finishes, tap Open in the notification. You can also find it in the Files app under Downloads.
Allow installs from your browser
The first time, Android asks for permission. Tap Settings, turn on Allow from this source, then go back. You only do this once.
Tap Install
Tap Install. If Google Play Protect shows a message because FlashX is not on Google Play yet, tap More details and then Install anyway.
Open FlashX
Tap Open, create your account and start sharing. FlashX also appears on your home screen.
Tip: after installing, you can turn Allow from this source off again in Settings. FlashX keeps working, and updates from this page will ask for it once more.
Help
Questions, answered.
Is FlashX free?
Yes. FlashX is free to download and use.
Is it safe to install an app from outside Google Play?
Install FlashX only from this website. Android shows a warning for every app that does not come from Google Play; that warning is about where the file came from, not about FlashX. If you like, check the SHA-256 checksum shown on this page against your download before installing.
Which phones does FlashX work on?
Android phones running Android 7.0 or newer. FlashX for iPhone is coming soon to the App Store.
It says “App not installed”. What do I do?
Make sure you have enough free storage, then download the APK again in case the first download was incomplete. If an older copy of FlashX from somewhere else is on your phone, uninstall it first, then install the one from this page.
It says “There was a problem parsing the package”.
The file did not download completely, or your phone runs a version older than Android 7.0. Delete the file, download it again on a stable connection and try once more.
I can't find “Allow from this source”.
Open Settings, search for “Install unknown apps”, pick the browser you downloaded with (for example Chrome) and turn on Allow from this source. On Android 7, turn on Unknown sources under Settings > Security.
How do I update FlashX?
Download the latest APK from this page and install it over the app you have. Your account, posts and messages stay as they are.
When is FlashX coming to Google Play and the App Store?
Soon. Until then, this page always has the latest Android version.
Ready? Get FlashX.
Free for Android. iPhone and Google Play versions are on the way.
