Antox

Antox is an Android 2.2+ client for Tox. It aims to bring the full multimedia support Tox offers to your device, although it's still currently in heavy development. Once ready, Antox will be available on Google Play and on F-Droid.

tip for next commit

###Current development Currently working on fixing bugs with multiple profiles and integrating toxme.se registration into the app. Work is also being done to wrap the Tox A/V features in jToxcore so that they can be implemented here.

###Antox On F-Droid To get Antox on F-Droid, add https://markwinter.me/fdroid/repo to your repo list. To do this, go to 'Repositories' in F-Droid and click the '+' symbol in the action bar. PLEASE NOTE this app is still alpha and will contain bugs and missing features (compared to other Tox clients)

###Antox On Google Play For those who used to test Antox on Google Play, we apologize that we will no longer be pushing alpha updates to the Play Store. Once Antox is release ready it will be published on the App store. Thanks to everyone who helped to test!

###Directly Installing Antox PLEASE NOTE this app is still alpha and will contain bugs and missing features (compared to other Tox clients)

  1. Download the latest APK here
  2. Sideload the APK to your phone, or just download the file from step 1 directly to your phone
  3. Ensure that you allow applications from unknown sources to be installed (Tick the option "Unkown Source", found in Settings>Security)
  4. Install the APK by either using a file manager or ADB.

###Known To Work On For a list of which devices currently run Antox, visit our Tox Wiki page. Antox should support Android 2.2+. Please open an issue if you find yourself unable to so it can be fixed.
