Thank you Kenneth,
I just downloaded it to my laptop and transferred to the Pixel 8 via USB
cable. It works!
Now I need to look around for the j keyboard -- special characters are a
nuisance on the default. And figure out the correct locations of the
data files and scripts I want to use ...
Best regards, Patrick

Hello all,
While I've not posted for a while, I've been a J user for many decades.
At present I'm running j9.4 and j9.5 on a mac mini and my Dell xps 13
under Ubuntu 22.04. I generally use jqt. All this is good.
What I'm seeking help with is J for android. Back in Jan 2022, I
acquired a Pixel 6 Pro phone. I installed J on it and have used it
successfully until a few weeks ago, when I upgraded to a Pixel 8 Pro
(seduced by the better camera). Now I want to install J on this phone,
but the problem is, I don't remember how I installed it. I have the
impression that it was available in the Play Store, but I can't find it
there now. I see that the files are found on github (thank you Michael
Dykman), but I haven't used github and am unfamiliar with it - I can't
believe that's how I installed it (and the J keyboard) on my Pixel 6.
The problem is that there seemed to be no way to copy 3rd party *apps*
from the Pix 6 to the Pix 8. (I really tried, and failed. Now my Pixel 6
is gone, traded in).
So I'm asking for help here. Is the J app that I loaded into my Pix 6 a
couple of years ago still out there somewhere, or do I have to figure
out what to do with all those files on github?
For something completely different, I have on order a System 76 linux
laptop. I'm in need of more computing power. Has anyone out there
installed J under System 76's Pop!_OS (which is basically just Ubuntu)?
I'll let you know how it goes.
