Yes we have apks for the app. Am working with an
organization called
"health information for all" to promote distribution. Am also hoping to see
organic spread. Realize that google play is blocked in China but many are
also using anonymizers to get around that. This was developed in
collaboration with Wikimedians in Taiwan who are also helping with
distribution. Appreciate your advice / help though on other mechanisms.
Excellent! It sounds like you've got it handled. :-)
Come to think of it, you might also consider looking at contacting Legal to
use the Wikipedia trademarks in the app. That might increase the app's
visibility and branding, and drive more downloads. This was done with
the Wikimedia
Commons
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.free.nrw.commons&hl=en> app
which is presently 100% volunteer supported. There's a form you can fill in
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Contact/requestlicense>, or you
can email trademarks(a)wikimedia.org.
Thanks,
