Getting started
Install in a few steps.
Android’s wording varies by device. Only install the APK you downloaded from bistreo.com.
Download the APK
Tap Download for Android above. When the download finishes, open the file from your browser’s downloads or the Files app → Downloads.
Allow this installation source
If Android asks, open Settings from the prompt and enable Allow from this source for the browser or Files app you used. Return to the installer. You can turn this permission off again after installation.
Install and open Bistreo
Tap Install, then Open. Keep Google Play Protect enabled and allow its checks. If a security check blocks the app or reports it as harmful, stop and contact support—don’t disable protection.
Sign in to your store
Use your Bistreo owner or staff email and password, then select your assigned store if prompted. The app connects to https://bistreo.com; you don’t need a local IP address or a computer running beside it.
On Android 7, the setting may instead appear as Security → Unknown sources. Turn it off again after installing. Newer devices give this permission to an individual browser or file app.

Before your first service
Allow background operation
For background order alerts, allow the app’s order-receiving service to run. If your device limits it, set Bistreo’s battery usage to Unrestricted or allow background activity. Keep a reliable internet connection.
Check your store & printer
Confirm the selected store, service status and stock. If you use kitchen printing, configure the printer in the app and run a test receipt before service.
Printer setup guide →Keep the device charged during service. Force-stopping the app, signing out, losing internet or device power-saving restrictions can stop order alerts. Reopen Bistreo after a restart and verify that order receiving is active.
Downloads & installation help
How do I update an existing installation?
Download the latest APK from this page and install it over your existing app. Android normally keeps your app data when the installation is compatible. If it says the package conflicts or the signatures differ, don’t uninstall during service—contact support first, as uninstalling removes local settings. Updates are manual until another distribution method is available.
Android won’t let me install it.
Check that the download finished, your device has free storage and it runs Android 7.0 or newer. A managed work device may require your organisation’s approval. If a security policy or Play Protect blocks installation, contact your administrator or support rather than bypassing it.
I don’t have a staff login.
Ask your restaurant owner or store manager to add you to the correct location. A customer account does not grant staff access. Restaurant owners can create a merchant account first.
Verify the downloaded file
