   Hello,

   Thanks for the suggestion!

   We are aware of different methods to distribute apps in a downloadable format outside of the Apple App or Google Play stores, but it is a more complicated process with a much smaller audience. While it is possible, we would prefer to focus our efforts on improving the site itself, which benefits all users regardless of which devices they use.

   You can find more details about the additional efforts we would need to support an app on our previous news post.

   Best,
   Aris

      I applaud your cautious approach as very wise. That AI attack reported this week? That is very sobering.

      I prefer that it's a website rather than an app, personally, it's more convenient.
