COME download button opened a page: what next?

A COME button can open an external app page before any file is saved. Inspect that page and the browser's download list to see what happened.

Confirm the destination

Read the visible address and current page options. An opened page may offer another action, information or an access message. Do not treat the page load itself as evidence that an APK transferred or that Android installed anything.

Look for a transfer

Open your browser's Downloads view and check whether a new item exists. If it is absent, a file transfer has not been confirmed. If a transfer is pending, read the browser's explanation before pressing the page button again.

Continue from the confirmed stage

When a completed APK is present, open that item and read Android's prompt. If the destination does not offer a file, stop describing the action as a direct download. Avoid search-result mirrors or unrelated links simply to force the next stage.

A useful next step

Follow the download guide only after identifying whether you have an app page or a completed file.
