Arka is great in the browser. It will be better on its own.
Open the sidebar today and look at the user profile in the bottom-left corner. Next to your name and badge there is a small download icon. Tap it, and you will see what is coming.
The four Arka downloads
- Arka Desktop — native app for Windows and macOS. Same UI, no browser tab, system-level keyboard shortcuts, faster startup.
- Arka for Android — voice input, image upload from the camera, push notifications when responses are ready.
- Arka for iOS — universal iPhone and iPad app with iCloud sync of your local chats and projects.
- Arka Chrome Extension — right-click any page to ask Arka. Summaries, rewrites, “explain this” on selected text.
All four say Coming Soon for now. We are not going to ship them on a fixed date and rush them out broken. They will arrive when they are good.
Why each app matters
Desktop removes the browser as a tax. Power users live in Arka all day; the browser tab is the cost they pay for that. A native shell eliminates it.
Mobile is where the next billion AI conversations happen. Voice input on Android, especially in Indian languages, is a much faster way to ask a question than typing on a phone keyboard. See our piece on why Arka is built for mobile from day one.
The Chrome extension is the most interesting of the four to us internally. The web is full of content you want to ask questions about; asking those questions should not require copy-paste.
