❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Why isn't the app downloaded from the App Store or Google Play? ▼

PotatoStats is built as a Progressive Web App (PWA). PWAs run directly on standard modern web engines, avoiding App Store download delays, Apple/Google account friction, and 50MB+ bundle sizes. It installs in 2 seconds and updates automatically.

Does the installed app receive live server player counts? ▼

Yes! The app connects directly to the PotatoServer.Live WebSocket cluster (sockets.potatoserver.live) to deliver real-time player counts, server map rotations, and incident notices around the clock.

How do I uninstall the app if I need to? ▼

Exactly like any native mobile app: on Android or iOS, long-press the PotatoStats icon on your home screen and choose "Remove App" / "Uninstall".

Can I install it on multiple devices? ▼

Yes. You can install PotatoStats on your phone, tablet, and desktop computer simultaneously. All instances share the same fast, real-time live network feed.
