The full version is not totally ready yet, but we were so excited to share this with you that we decided to make this app available in the meantime — we hope you like it!

Tap here from your Android browser, visit groupme.com/androidbeta, or follow the instructions below to download it now.

Notes:

Please be aware that this app is meant for people who have used a GroupMe app before. If you’re not already a GroupMe app user, you’ll have to download our current Android app to register, then upgrade to the beta.

The app totally works for chatting with your groups, but you may notice a few missing features, namely, languages other than English, emoji, and read receipts. Rest assured, they’ll be there in the final version. #)

Download Instructions:

• On your Android Device, allow installation of non-Play Store apps. You can find this option in the Settings Menu under Applications or Security, typically labeled “Unknown Sources.”
• Tap here from your Android browser to download the beta.
• Tap on the completed download in the notification bar or in your Downloads folder.
• If you see a “Replace app?” dialog, tap “OK”.
• Tap “Install” to finish.
