Where to get the latest dev build apk

Apologize for the dumb question. Longtime desktop Windows Dolphin user, first time Android (attempted) user. I would like to give it a try on my Note 5 and see how it runs. Can't for the life of me find where the download is for the application. I saw a random file up on the play store but assumed it wasn't legit or the most up-to-date version. I also did many a google search and looked around the main Dolphin website, no dice.

Appreciate it garyrob.

For future reference, where on the official Dolphin site does it link to this url?

It doesn't.

Dolphin for Android isn't feature parity with the PC version, nor are there many devices that can run it reasonably well without being screwed by drivers, so there is little incentive to expose builds to the user facing site. People will just download it, complain it doesn't install on their phone from 2010, and it would just be a pain.

Okay,someone make a thread titled "Dolphin Android Releases" with that link and sticky it for future reference.

Only if the Android support forum gets a popup when you click on it that asks

"Do you have a device with an X1 or an snapdragon 820+ chip?"

if no

"Do you plan to get one?"

if no, redirect them back to the main forums. :^)

And before anybody gets salty, that was a joke.

Is the Snapdragon 820 even out yet?

I'd rather it was more than a joke. Somebody get on that

I'm actually having some issues with installing the app on my new shield tablet. Just bought the shield k1 tablet and was able to install the version in the store but for some reason it won't allow me to install any of the builds. Anyone have any ideas why this isn't working. Yes I have it set to allow apks from unknown sources I can press install on it I just get "App not installed" message.

Current versions of Dolphin works only on 64-bit devices and AFAIK the CPU from K1 is 64-bit capable, so, that's weird. Maybe the Android version from it doesn't have a 64-bit userspace? If that's the case there's nothing you can do other than getting a fully 64-bit capable device (AFAIK)...
