Experimental WebUSB Install

Quick Log — A minimal, fast logging app focused on quick inputs

Experimental

Install Quick Log over USB from your browser

This page is a static GitHub Pages experiment that tries to use WebUSB and ADB to install the Quick Log APK. It is intended for testing with a desktop Chromium browser and a USB-connected Android device.

Before you try it

This is experimental. You will be giving this page temporary ADB access to the device you choose in the browser picker. Use it only with a device you control, and expect browser, driver, USB mode, CORS, or Android installer prompts to fail while this is being tested.

Recommended paths

If the browser install path fails, these are the reliable options.

Obtainium tracks this GitHub repository and can install future release APKs directly from the source.

Requirements

  • Chrome, Edge, or another Chromium browser with WebUSB
  • Android device connected over USB
  • Developer options and USB debugging enabled
  • ADB authorization accepted on the device
  • No other ADB process currently using the device

WebUSB installer

Checking browser support...

The default APK URL is served from this GitHub Pages site to avoid GitHub Release asset CORS restrictions. If it is not available yet, download the APK from the release page and use the local APK option.

Ready.

How this works

  1. The browser asks for permission to access one ADB-capable USB device.
  2. The device shows the normal Android USB debugging authorization prompt.
  3. The page authenticates with ADB and streams an APK into Android Package Manager.
  4. The Pages deploy workflow copies the latest release APK to a same-origin download path so the browser can fetch it.
