What do you want to install?
Volley Video Recorder for Android
The Recorder is in beta and is not on Google Play yet, so you install the APK file directly. It needs Android 14 or later (check under Settings → About phone → Android version). On older Android versions the phone will refuse to install it.
- Step 1: Download the APK file using the button below.
- Step 2: Tap the download notification, or open your Files app and tap the APK in your Downloads folder.
- Step 3: If Android says your phone is not allowed to install unknown apps from this source, tap Settings on that message.
- Step 4: Turn on Allow from this source for the app you downloaded with (for example Chrome or Files).
- Step 5: Go back and tap Install. The app appears as Blue Volley Video.

⚠ Already have an older build? Uninstall it first, and that erases your games
This release is signed with a new key, so Android refuses to install it over any earlier Blue Volley Video build (anything installed before 22 September 2026). You have to uninstall the old app first, and uninstalling deletes every game stored on the phone.
Before you uninstall, save the games you want to keep, and check the copies are really there:
- In the old app, export each game to Google Drive (the Games list's Upload key), or
- connect the phone to a computer and copy the folders from
Internal storage/Android/media/com.patdeg.volleyrecorder/VolleyRecorder.
If this is the first Blue Volley Video build on the phone, there is nothing to save: install it as described above.
First: install FFmpeg
The Editor uses FFmpeg to cut and join clips, so install it before the Editor. The easiest way on a Mac is Homebrew:
brew install ffmpeg

Install the Volley Video Editor
The beta is not notarized by Apple yet, so macOS blocks it the first time. On macOS 15 Sequoia and later you allow it once in System Settings:
- Step 1: Download the
.dmgfile below and double-click it. - Step 2: Drag Blue Volley Video into your Applications folder.
- Step 3: Open Blue Volley Video from Applications. When macOS says it can't verify the app, click Done (do not move it to the Trash).
- Step 4: Open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down to Security, and click Open Anyway next to the message about Blue Volley Video. The button is there for about an hour after you tried to open the app.
- Step 5: Click Open Anyway in the dialog that follows and enter your Mac password. You only do this once.
On macOS 14 Sonoma and earlier, you can instead Control-click the app in Applications, choose Open, then click Open. If macOS says the app "is damaged", delete it, download the .dmg again from this page, and contact us if it happens again.

Optional: set up Google Drive sync
Everything in the Editor works without this: opening games, marking plays and exporting highlight reels. Only the Sync with Google Drive button needs it, because the installers no longer carry a Google API client file. Until you add one, that button reports: "Google Drive is not set up: put the OAuth client file at <your home folder>/.config/volley-editor/credentials.json (or set VOLLEY_EDITOR_CREDENTIALS)".
To turn Drive sync on, use your own Google API client:
- In the Google Cloud console, pick a project and enable the Google Drive API.
- Create an OAuth client ID of type Desktop app and download its JSON file.
- Save that file as
<your home folder>/.config/volley-editor/credentials.json, or point theVOLLEY_EDITOR_CREDENTIALSenvironment variable at it.
This build is not signed by Apple
Blue Volley Video has no Apple Developer ID certificate yet, so macOS shows an unidentified developer warning the first time you open it. That is expected, and the steps above get you through it: right-click (or Control-click) the app in Applications, choose Open, then click Open again. On macOS 15 Sequoia and later, use System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway.
Because nothing vouches for the file, you can check it yourself before installing: run this in Terminal and compare the result with the SHA-256 under the download button.

Install the Volley Video Editor
Install the Editor with the standard Windows installer.
- Step 1: Download the
.msifile below. - Step 2: Double-click the file to start the installer.
- Step 3: The beta is not code-signed yet, so Microsoft Defender SmartScreen may say "Windows protected your PC". Click More info, then Run anyway.
