On April 1, Hyperliquid announced via its official Discord channel that its mobile app is now available on the Google Play Store as an initial MVP (Minimum Viable Product) for user testing. Android users can access the app via a dedicated link. The initial MVP has intentionally limited functionality—currently only supporting trade notifications. The goal is to gradually upgrade from a Progressive Web App (PWA) based on early user feedback, iterating on feature priorities and device-specific issues. Download numbers will be capped during the testing phase, and user feedback is strongly encouraged. Officials note this is just the first MVP version. Users wanting to disable notifications can uncheck "Enable Push Notifications" in the settings dropdown. Future plans include expanding notification configuration options. Important reminder: Avoid any counterfeit apps on the Google Play Store—always use the official link.
