I was refunded by the seller so I had no other options than buy different brand's player in the end. Tbh, I'm bit tired as I tried to solve this with seller and also Amazon and they could't do anything else than refund.Wow!!! Thats really bad!!! ☹
Go to trading standards...seriously, they have to do something.
Visit Activo's Facebook, twitter, Instagram and message them up. Also message Astell directly!!!
I'm pleased with my player...but don't use it as much as I'd like....due to the issues with apks and having to search high and low for valid ones.
Believe Activo should provide regular updated lists for its user base. It show that you value your customer base....

Any love for the Activo CT10?

Let's hope your player won't break. Fingers crossed.I had Fiio M6 but I returned it, the sound was terrible for me, muffled hights etc.. Now I have CT10 and the soud is crisp and just perfect. Just my opinion.

Phew!!! Thats better then nothing, as its what I thought you got....I was refunded by the seller so I had no other options than buy different brand's player in the end. Tbh, I'm bit tired as I tried to solve this with seller and also Amazon and they could't do anything else than refund.
There was a bit of a fire sale on these a few months back when they were going for 99quid, which offered exceptional value for what you got...but only if it works...
It has a few quirks but the android based ui is a breeze to use. Sounds great. Its the app issue that bugs me....
I've only managed to Amazon music working. Really want a working Internet radio app working....

So is there no way to bypass whitelist if someone wants a couple of apps other than ones allowed ?
No, only whitewashed apps can be installed.So is there no way to bypass whitelist if someone wants a couple of apps other than ones allowed ?

What versions of the Tidal APK are allowed in Firmware 1.20 @JasonNYC ?
I've tried every single one from APK Pure site following the guide on the blog https://us.activostyle.com/blogs/news/open-app-feature-explained
None of them show in the list to install. I'm able to get other apps, such as Soundcloud and Spotify installed as per the directions.
Is the firmware approved list pinning a version of the Tidal (non-native) app? If so which one.

I tried many many versions too. Try to download it from another websine, not from apkpure. It didnt work for me too. Try apkmirror.com and download that second not "bundle" version.

Thanks heaps @Greave - I just came to the same conclusion after many hours searching.Latest usable version of Tidal is 2.31.0
I tried many many versions too. Try to download it from another websine, not from apkpure. It didnt work for me too. Try apkmirror.com and download that second not "bundle" version.
Most of the APKPure downloads are APKX and won't install without an APKX installer. I tried using an APKX installer (which installed!) but didn't work as documented at Moon Audio.
In the end the versions that are available and work were from https://mobile.softpedia.com/apk/tidal/
I downloaded every version from 2.20.0 to 2.39.0 and copied them across. Came to the same conclusion as the answer you've provided. 2.31.0 and earlier versions all show up in the list
@JasonNYC what does it take to get the newer versions allowed? 2.33.6 introduced an option for use HiFi Tidal subscribers to now choose to play Artist and Track Radio in MQA.

Me too. I made my Tidal offline collection and I turn off both bluetooth and wifi so I can listen almost whole day When wifi or bluetooth is on the battery is draining quite fast. I bought a Miter case on Amazon, it is quite expensive but it is the only one specimen in the world and gives good protection. Than i bought flexible screen protector for Samsung S20 and cut it for the Activo screen size. Man can't do enough to protect this treasureYeah agreed that would be awesome.
