Add a pack at home

Ark never needs internet. Your phone or PC bridges the download.

1. Download while online

On home Wi‑Fi, open the Library (or Account downloads) at alexandriaark.com. Save the pack file to your phone or computer.

2. Join Ark

Connect to the Ark hotspot (or use USB). Leave the commerce site; open the device PWA.

3. Install locally

Status → Add pack (coming on device). Pick the file. Ark checks free space and checksum, then reloads the library.

USB path

Copy into ~/ark/corpus/zim/ on the device, verify checksum, restart Ark services. See docs/commerce-pack-api.md in the repo.
