Add a direct download for Android in /download, for consistency.

INSERT-USER_NAME

The download page has direct download options for Windows and MacOS, but Android doesn't have one.
This is an option for most Android devices, however, so for consistency, I think an APK download should be added to the download page, and possibly accessibility reasons too, if you can't use the Play Store for some reason.

consider posting here maybe?

How do apks work? I’ve had an android before but I never really downloaded or messed with that stuff. When downloaded, like, what happens?
Plus, doesn’t scratch already have an app for android?

APKs are basically files that contain android apps, most file managers will allow you to open them, and when opened, it prompts you with an installer.
I don't know if you have access to Wikipedia (might be blocked) but here's something I found covering APKs: link

Scratch does have an app for android, yes, but it's only available on tablets, I tried searching for Scratch on my phone, but only got ScratchJR, If you're on a phone, this APK download may be handy.

APK is like installers on windows. You download one, you open it, new app gets installed.

Also scratch has an app already but it's on the play store and many androids don't have the play store installed (open Gapps incompatible or outdated version, too laggy)

I want to add on, APKPure does a terrible job on checking if a .apk is a scam or not
I can confirm this by searching an app thats not on playstore and boom
(Its a survey scam)

I don't think it's best to share it here since even you don't know they are safe or not. The links seem sketchy too, you should remove them before someone gets their phone infected.
