The url Tor was downloaded from is guardianproject.info/apps/orbot direct download(.apk). I tried doing so again after your response. The tablet operating system indicated it had downloaded, -- but it had not. If it is still on the droid hard drive, how do I find it? Is there a search function as in Windows? ... Kindly be advised, I did get rid of all the google and other commercial apps on the tablet earlier after Tor would not properly download. Every one I could find. Are any of these apps required by the droid to download Orbot? -- Will not download from the google store since they demand registration and do track. The ISP does not appear to be a factor since it is public, a coffee shop. Have had no problems downloading Tor updates to Windows machines there. The droid I'm trying to download Tor to is a tablet, not a phone. Thanks for your help. libertyinperil > On January 30, 2016 2:11:03 PM PST, Richard > <lists-tor-t...@listmail.innovate.net> wrote: >>> Date: Saturday, January 30, 2016 20:50:22 +0100 >>> From: libertyinpe...@ruggedinbox.com >>> Have used Tor for years with no problems on Windows.
