  6. Confirm by selecting Turn off when prompted.

Step 2. Enable Install from Unknown Sources

Since the Agent app is distributed outside the Google Play Store, you must allow installation from unknown sources. (The exact menu may vary slightly depending on your Android version and brand.)

  1. Open Settings on the device.

  2. Navigate to Security & Privacy (or Apps & Notifications, depending on your device).

  3. Look for 'Install unknown apps' or 'Allow from this source'.

  4. Select the browser or file manager you use for downloading the APK (e.g., Chrome).

  5. Enable the "Allow from this source" option.

Note: This message appears when you download the application in step 3. You will need to allow the installation of unknown applications for the browser (Here Chrome).
