One for the Android users - instructions on how to sideload the new MakeUpForDolls Android app!
This one seems complicated, but it's not really... honestly! "Sideloading" is a new-ish term which refers to downloading of an app onto a device outside of that device's native app store, and the installation of that app on your local device's storage. So you won't be downloading this from the Google Play Store*, for example - instead you can use a QR code (see the rest of the post) to link directly to a website to download the app and install it onto your Google Android device.
Why bother? For me - it was an exercise in seeing if I could do it. For Android readers of my blog - why not! It's a single-click access to the app with a dynamically updated recreation of the blog, in other words it auto-updates for you each time a new post is produced or any other updates are made.
Here's the instructions... go for it and I'd love to hear some feedback from anyone who has tried it...
* reason being, Google charges 25 quid to post an app to the Google Play Store. AND it doesn't allow legacy Google for Business domains to register with the appropriate tools first to enable you to do this as far as I can see, so I'd have to commit to spending additional on a monthly subscription to this too. No thanks.
