Installation on Android
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
Please note that Kivy is a framework. Installing Kivy itself on your phone will do
|
|
absolutely nothing. Kivy is not an application.
|
|
|
|
That said, we provide a "launcher" that allows you to push
|
|
your Kivy application onto your phone and execute it through a simple interface.
|
|
We'll provide instructions for packaging your Kivy application in a standalone
|
|
way in the future.
|
|
|
|
To install the Kivy launcher, you must:
|
|
|
|
#. Go to the `Kivy Launcher <https://market.android.com/details?id=org.kivy.pygame>`_
|
|
on the Google Play Store
|
|
#. Click on Install
|
|
#. Select your phone... And you're done!
|
|
|
|
If you don't have Google Play Store on your tablet, check http://kivy.org/#download for downloading the APK manually.
|
|
|
|
Now, you can put your Kivy applications in the Kivy directory on the SD Card.
|
|
Refer to :ref:`android` for a more detailed explanation.
