Install and get started

  1. 1. Choose a version

    The newest release is selected automatically, but you can use the version dropdown if you need an older published release.

  2. 2. Download

    Tap the download button. Kota-OS checks the Android device information your browser exposes and starts the matching download when it can identify it.

  3. 3. Install

    Open the APK in Downloads. Approve your browser or file manager as an installation source only when Android asks, then remove that permission when finished.

  4. 4. Back up

    Sign in, set up a menu and start selling. After service, use Settings → Business backup and keep the saved JSON somewhere outside your phone.

How to verify a downloaded APK

The download card shows the exact size and SHA-256 after your installer is selected.

Windows PowerShell: Get-FileHash "filename.apk" -Algorithm SHA256

macOS: shasum -a 256 "filename.apk"

Linux: sha256sum "filename.apk"
