Checklist

Describe the bug

This isn't really a bug and only three of the mandatory checkboxes are true but I didn't know where else to raise the issue. I can't even get Seal installed on my phone! I tell it to install and it just says "you can't install the app on your device". I'm on Android 13, I got the .apk from Uptodown, and I don't know what else the problem could be.

To Reproduce

I downloaded the .apk to my laptop, and moved it from there to my phone via USB. I tap on the file, it gives me the box where I can either cancel or install, I hit install, and the message pops up at the bottom of the screen.

I'm not one of the developers, but I've had this problem happen to me a few times (for other (android) programs, not this one), so I'm guessing that the problem is that Uptodown will (usually) have only one type of a program, usually for android devices that have armeabi-v7a. The problem is that android devices can have one of 4 different (read = incompatible) hardware chipsets.
x86
x86_64
armeabi-v7a
arm64-v8a
Some android program developers will release a "universal" version which includes programming that for each of the different chipsets. This ensures that all android devices (that meet the other requirements, example = android 4 or higher) will be able to install it, but it also makes the universal version's file size bigger.
The other option is to release a separate version for one or more of the chipsets.

Anyway, go here.

At the top, look for "Assets". If it's not expanded, click on it to expand it.
Download & try to install each APK one at a time. One of them should work for you.
