Use Candy AI through your Android browser
Start by opening our website on your Android phone, then add a shortcut if your browser supports it. There is no need to sideload an APK or relax Android's app-security settings for this setup.
Topics in this article
Pin the page you want to return to
Choose the catalogue as your saved page if browsing characters is your usual starting point. The icon only points back to that page: it creates no extra account or membership and installs no offline AI model.
- Visit your preferred Candy AI starting page using the browser on your Android phone.
- Tap the browser's three-dot menu button.
- Choose Add to Home Screen or that browser's available install action.
- Approve the shortcut, then tap its home-screen icon to open it.
Keep unofficial packages away from your login
An APK listing is not needed for the browser route described here. Treat our branding, a claimed earlier version or the word Premium as labels, not evidence that the download came from us.
We do not offer official modified packages. Your account is where membership is managed, and an unfamiliar app's promise of unlocked access is no reason to hand over your sign-in details.
Match permissions to the action you selected
You can read text chat without camera or microphone permission. A call, where supported, may require the browser to use your microphone; permission for notifications is separate and does not grant microphone access.
Review both the site's permissions and Android's settings for the browser when access is blocked. Allow only what the chosen feature needs, keeping unrelated permissions unchanged rather than approving every available request.
Test the same page outside the shortcut
Visit the website normally and compare the same login, character and requested action. This check helps distinguish an icon issue from a feature that is unavailable or access missing from that account.
Record any local character bookmarks before removing site data or recreating the shortcut. Clearing browser storage may erase those preferences; it does not stop payments or replace the account's subscription-cancellation process.
Your questions
Do I need an Android package before creating the shortcut?
No package is required. Visit our site in your Android browser and look for Add to Home Screen or its supported Install command to create an entry for the web app.
Are modified APKs an official way to unlock membership?
No. We provide no official modified packages. Check membership through your own account; an unofficial download's description cannot establish that you have paid access or Premium rights.
Does deleting the shortcut unsubscribe my Android account?
Removing a home-screen entry leaves the subscription untouched. Sign in to the account holding the plan and complete its cancellation steps if you want renewal stopped.
What does the icon store for offline use?
It does not install an AI model for offline chat or generation; those actions still rely on our online service. Local profile bookmarks are browser references, not copies of conversations stored in your account.
