I have been trying to research how to install the **apk file** that is sent  
via email for my **iOS device** from thunkable X nothing is helping.  
The problem is that the **apk file can not be downloaded** and I can’t  
see the **device management** where I can trust **Trust Rappidly Inc**.  
I already installed the profile on my **iOS device**. How can I fix this?  
I am using an **iPad Pro (12.9-inch) Software version 13.3** and also  
**size screen** during the **development** , can I just use the **live test**  
during **development** or maybe you can **change the size of the  
UI screen on the Thunkable X platform**?

Thanks.

Hey @Chanda_Steven,

.apk files are **only** compatible with Android files - they can not be installed on different operating systems, like Windows or iOS.

Here’s a full guide to downloading and installing for iOS:
