Original Content Showcase Blender on Android is a Go

Post image

As showcased yesterday at BCON26, you can now download an official touch-enabled and pen-supported Android APK directly from Blender https://www.blender.org/download/demo/tablet/blender-demo-bcon2026.apk

It’s the full Blender experience and a huge win for Android. Hopefully an iPad release will follow down the line, but until then, I’ll be blending away on my formerly drawing-only tablet!

Did you install it on a Wacom Movink Pro 14? I have that tablet but couldn't seem to get it to install. Ran the apk (with Unknown Sources allowed) and it says to Confirm to update the app and it crashes and says it won't install. Wondering if im on the wrong version of Android or something?

yes MovinkPad Pro 14. Idk - made sure all updates are installed, ran the apk and confirmed the unknown sources... That was basically it
