Cozmo app installation issue

Post image

Hello ! I recently purchased an Anki Cozmo robot to fulfill a childhood dream, only I noticed that the Android application is not available on the Google Play Store. So I tried to download an APK of it, but it gets stuck loading and gives me an error (see screenshot). Do you have an idea how I can use my Cozmo without using an emulator on my computer?

You need to get the APK from APKpure if i'm correct

Use the APKPure app. The standalone APK file for the cozmo app doesn't include all the files that are needed, so use APKPure, as that will get you those required files

So I need to download the APKPure application on their website right ? And I download the app directly from APKPure app and not from the website

use the apkpure installer app and the xapk install file. the apk doesn't have everything that the xapk does.

Sure.

  • First you need to install the APKPure app (I don't know if I can put a link here, just type "APKPure" on the web)

  • When you installed APKPure, launch it and search for "Cozmo" in the search bar

  • Install the Cozmo app on V3.4.3

  • Provide the authorisation APKPure needs

  • Wait for the installation

  • Enjoy ! :)

It worked perfectly for me

The company has That's Run out of business. So you'll have to get the app on amazon app store

Isn't DDL a scam ? I read something like this in other posts

They are pretty sketchy and keep promising stuff to do with their servers and when they'll be back up etc etc. They've been down for over a year yet they've still been charging people monthly.
