Hi @mpapali,

Unfortunately this is not possible with built-in Adalo features and components.

Maybe such feature could be implemented in a custom component.

Best regards, Victor.

Hey @mpapali,

Yes, you can publish apps to Google Play Store and Apple App Store. At this moment you will need a Professional plan for this, please see here: [Plans & Pricing | Adalo](https://www.adalo.com/pricing)

Best,  
Victor.

Thanks Victor,  
But is it possible to run the app on my Android phone other than the emulator. I would like to test run on my android phone before I put it out in the Play store.

Hi @mpapali,

There is a “Internal Test Track” in Playstore Console, so you can create a release in this track, add testers (including yourself), send a link (there is a testing link) to testers. You can then download this app to your Android phone from the Playstore using this link. **You don’t have to publish it.**

There is no standard way to download the app to your phone **without** putting it to PlayStore (again: you don’t have to publish it - use Internal Testing Track).  
Maybe you can try to extract .apk from .aab, however this requires some extra efforts.

Best,  
Victor.
