Hi there! I need the Homey app without using Google Play. I have a separate network for Home Automation/IoT things with no internet connected (blocked). I use (older) mobile phones for dedicated user control and I want the Homey v2 app installed on one of the newer device. So, is there link where I can manually download the apk file? ---

Thank you @bvdbos With all do respect, I don’t download/install from a not-trusted source. Does Athom have a direct download URL? (like [Fibaro](http://android.fibaro.com/) has) ---
