Field Kit is available as a web app and as native apps for Android and iOS.
Field Kit is currently available as a web app, which can be found at [farmos.app]
and can be installed as a [Progressive Web App] (PWA). As a PWA, the app will work
offline and your logs will be stored in between uses. You can even add the app to
your device's home screen, so it can be launched just like a native app.
The Android app can be installed now from the [Play Store].
The iOS app is only available right now via [Test Flight] and you will need an
invite in order to install it. If you'd like to request and invite, you can

Previously, and perhaps again in the future, Field Kit was available as native
apps for Android and iOS. The Android app can still be installed now from the
[Play Store], but is currently not receiving regular updates. The iOS app was
previously available on [Test Flight], but at the time of writing this (Apr 2020)
all builds have expired and are no longer available for download; previous
installs will not be updated for the foreseeable future. We encourage all users
to migrate to the PWA, which shares the same features as the native apps. For
more details on this decision, see the related [forum post].
