Get the Zaksha app

The app goes on your child's phone and keeps filtering on wherever they are. You manage everything from your dashboard.

Download Zaksha for Android
APK · about 8 MB · Android 8.0 or newer · coming soon to Google Play
1

Open the downloaded file

Tap the download notification, or find zaksha-agent.apk in the Files app.

2

Allow the install

The phone asks once for permission to install apps from this browser — tap Settings, turn on Allow from this source, and go back.

3

If Play Protect shows a warning expected

Zaksha isn't distributed through the Play Store yet, so Google shows a caution for any app installed outside it. Tap More details → Install anyway. The app is signed by Zaksha — you can verify the file's checksum on our release page below.

4

Open Zaksha and pair

The app asks for a pairing code — it's showing in your Zaksha dashboard on the Add device screen.

Setting up a brand-new or factory-reset phone? (tamper-proof)

Skip the download above — the phone installs Zaksha itself and locks filtering on, so it can't be turned off or uninstalled from the phone. Here's the whole flow:

1

Get the setup code from your dashboard

On app.zaksha.com: Add device → Android → New or resetTamper-proof. A setup QR appears on your screen.

2

Erase the phone (skip if it's brand-new)

On the child's phone: Settings → System → Reset options → Erase all data (factory reset). Back up photos and chats first — everything on the phone is removed and there's no undo.

3

Tap the welcome screen 6 times

When the phone restarts to the "Hi there" welcome screen, tap anywhere on it six times — a QR scanner opens.

4

Scan the code from your dashboard

Connect to Wi-Fi if the phone asks, then point the camera at the QR on your dashboard. The phone downloads Zaksha and sets it up on its own.

5

Finish the phone's setup as usual

Sign in, restore what you need — Zaksha is already protecting the phone and shows as connected in your dashboard.
