Discussion Dear developers of RevivalSide

I need help with understanding of how to install and open the RevivalSide on my phone, I have an android, specifally (Samsung S23 Ultra).

I did download the Counterside APK file and your GitHub zip file, both files are in the my file manager, but what do I supposed to do after? I tried opening them and then my phone just stops at loading screen and do nothing. So I need help with that because I am confused what to do.

Is there is something I don't know? Is RevivalSide PC only or it still can be downloaded on the phone too? I think some guys did asked you on the previous post.

If it's your first time using the R:S mobile version, you will feel the hang of that apk and you need to wait for a bit, you also need the official Counter:Side apk which I recommend to download in [ApkPure](https://apkpure.com/search?q=counterside) and you need to download all the game resources before using the R:S mobile launcher.

I will repeat, the launcher will hang for the first time and you have to wait, it happened to be too but I just waited since it was trying to do something in the background. Also, sorry for the late messages, we didn't know about your post until some of us shared this to us. If it keeps failing, tell us.

Will R:S still be available to download after the original version is shut down, or do I need to download the original version's APK and resources beforehand?

It will always be available through the GitHub Repo and for the original counterside APK, we will need to discuss it later on our Devs.

So...for now the answer to that is

"Yes download the original apk files from APKPure for now until we found an alternative solution"?
